Title: What happened to all the trains...?! A Contrast to Melksham
Post by: thetrout on May 25, 2010, 19:44:20
thetrout went out on Saturday Night to Bristol with his good friends :)

We decided to catch the 7:34 Service back to Bath Spa, which was something special in itself as this particular train reversed at Lawerence Hill, returned via the Rhubarb and then went onto Bath Spa...

However, When we arrived at Bristol Temple Meads, a station with 15 platforms, this is all the CIS had for us... A similar station to comes mind :D

I'm intrigued by the second line on the banner under the screens.  I've never noticed it as I don't usually look at these CIS screens.  I assume the first line says "Please have your ticket", but what does the second line say?

Something along the lines of"if entering but not travelling then please consider making a donation to our charity" IIRC.
