Am the time of writing I am stuck on the 1736 reading to Bradford on Avon service going nowhere. Apparently the atp has kicked in and we are waiting for the AA to come out and vino start us.

On its own this wouldn't be an issue but I am really struggling to remember a time in the last 3weeks when an FGW (First Great Western)  service ran to anything like time

Is this ever going to get any better? Scream !!!

Do you know if was a correct intervention or a failure?

It's funny though as long as I can remember in many years of communing performance has always seemed to fall off in November. It's as if the railway needs to settle down to the dark nights and colder wetter weather.

I believe it was a failure as it needed a fitter to rectify
