... nothing much has changed.   Melksham to Reading and London still cheaper via Swindon.

However, if you live in Trowbridge or Bradford-on-Avon it's cheaper via the Berks and Hants.

The interesting station groupings that mean Melksham has 'via Swindon' as an alternative to 'Any Permitted', whilst TRO and BOA have 'via Newbury' and 'Any Permitted'.
