From December 2007 , a location in West Wiltshire will be served by 11 times the number of trains per weekday than the number of trains that are scheduled to call at Melksham , also in West Wiltshire.

However , the location has around 20000 less people living there than live in Melksham.

Can you name the location?

So let me get this right - Melksham has one train per six thousand population per day, but this other place has one train per ninety population per day?    It has to be a junction or changing point does, it, Lee? Surely that service can't be based on just the local population?

Avoncliff?

Probably Avoncliff, since I think Freshford is over the border in NE Somerset.

Talking of Somerset, Melksham has an infinitely better train service than the borough of Norton Radstock, a conurbation of similar size!

Spot on , vacman and BandHcommuter.

In the 2001 census , Melksham was marked down as having 21000 inhabitants , while Avoncliff is described as having "27 homes (3 of which are actually in the parish of Winsley), several boat homes and a public house."

From December 2007 , 44 weekday trains (a rise of 4) are scheduled to call at Avoncliff station , while just 4 weekday trains (a rise of 0) are scheduled to call at Melksham.

On the Norton Radstock issue , the possibility of achieving a single return journey between Radstock and Swindon via Westbury , Trowbridge , Melksham and Chippenham was looked at , but effectively sunk by a pessimistic assessment by the consultancy firm Atkins (link below.)

Yes indeed - I would imagine the most abundant passenger flow would be towards Bath and Bristol, and I can't see that line being reopened in my lifetime!
