Title: Question on loading Post by: dzug on October 13, 2011, 10:03:12 How busy are Cotswold line trains leaving Paddington or Slough on a Sunday evening?
Should I be worried about getting a seat (or in extremis getting on) as i would on a Friday? Title: Re: Question on loading Post by: dog box on October 13, 2011, 10:11:07 You will easily get a seat , although they can be busy to Oxford.

Title: Re: Question on loading Post by: dzug on November 07, 2011, 09:33:09 Just to feed back, the 1842 (boarded at Slough at 1902) was packed and standing yesterday evening. Didn't really thin out until Didcot. Did get a seat (PAD-Worcs unclaimed reservation that others were ignoring)
There was an announcement about a coach connection to Swindon from Didcot so maybe it was doubling up for another train This page is printed from the "Coffee Shop" forum at http://gwr.passenger.chat which is provided by a customer of Great Western Railway.
