So this is the One and only train that stopped at Melksham on 9th September, then - at 19:51

For newcomers - Melksham is NOT a small town.  It has a population of some 24,000 who, like everyone eles in te country, need to travel from time to time.

Here is an express train that went through while I was at the station waiting for the 19:51:

Where did it stop?  Swindon then Westbury ...  small problem if anyone wanted to use this train to get to Melksham - the alternaive bus that parallels the railway doesn't run on a Sunday either ...
