I mut say a big well done to all the emergency services and agencys involved and the weather was definately not on their side i was at J27 where the northbound slip road had been closed and it was very foggy there i can only imagine what it would have been like next to a fireworks display too.

I guess Ollie might be able to advise, but as a first point of contact you might try contacting FGW▸ (First Great Western) customer relations - they may not have the answers immediately but should be able to direct you to the appropriate person. This assumes of course, that FGW does actually accept students on work experience placements - have you checked this?
Ive seen people at EXD» (Exeter St Davids - next trains) before so im hoping so and what are the numbers i need to contact ?
