1  Journey by Journey / London to South Wales / Re: Additional trains for Wales v South Africa at the Millennium Stadium - 29 Nov 14 on: November 29, 2014, 20:55:17
I have never seen so many people today queuing for tickets at Swindon station
They were out in front of the station nearly on the road
This was due to the huge demand of rugby fans going both ways towards Cardiff of London
Trains were all packed tube style,could not fgw got west coast railways based at Southall to provide some extra capacity
No as usual fgw doing everything to the bone, even some HSTs (High Speed Train) were 7 coach sets
