Still waiting for the minutes from the September 2012 meetings......

Time to nudge FGW▸ (First Great Western) more publicly.

It also says on that page that applications to the Customer Panel should be sent c/o Jo Coverley.

She's no longer responsible for overseeing the Customer Panel.  Roll Eyes

I sometimes wonder quite where First Great Western would be, without the excellent Ollie.  Roll Eyes Shocked Grin

William Huskisson MP▸ (Member of Parliament, or Mile Post (a method of measuring the railway in miles and chains from a starting point - usually London), depending on context) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: Stop, Look, Listen.

It still states that meetings occur quarterly, but in fact they occur every 4 months (jan, may,sept).

Also the london and cotswold panel minutes have not been updated since May, west panel minutes for september are there.


(edited for typo and to remove extra "9")

Indeed. The Panel members are still awaiting these too. The usual minute-taker was away sick & I don't know who was charged with doing them. I will enquire.
