Title: Planning for the weekend after next Post by: grahame on February 24, 2022, 23:13:23 The weekend after next, a busy Saturday. I'm hoping to meet a fiend from FoSBR at Yatton, carry on to Bridgwater to attend the update from Go-op at Railfuture then back to Melksham to see some Carpenters (or people pretending to be them). So I thought I would check my train times on the GWR web site.
Quote Amended Great Western Railway timetable until further notice. Train times from Saturday 26 February onwards may not be showing correctly in journey planners. We recommend that you re-check your journey before travelling. More details Amended Great Western Railway timetable until further notice. Train times from Saturday 26 February onwards may not be showing correctly in journey planners. We recommend that you re-check your journey before travelling. More details Which really makes planning for such a joined up journey set over 10 days ahead. Oh for a timetable that's in place for months ahead, or even engineering changes 12 weeks ahead. I'm writing on 24th Feb, and the advice above is "we don't know what will be running on 27th" ... looking forward to being back to much better notice, but that's assuming that we DO get back to better notice, rather than the indusrty deciding that 72 hours is sufficient - it might be for them, but not for many of their customers.

I share your pain asI’mlooking at coming to Bridgwater too

Are there many fiends attending? Should others come equipped with a crucifix? :) This page is printed from the "Coffee Shop" forum at http://gwr.passenger.chat which is provided by a customer of Great Western Railway.
