Swindon, Melksham and Westbury have Customer Information Service display screens and we've been given permission to use those data feeds ... the following may be useful bookmarks for users of the TransWilts (and also for passengers travelling from Swindon and Westbury to other places)

http://atrebatia.info/swindon

http://atrebatia.info/melksham

http://atrebatia.info/westbury

The Swindon information is already available in the GW» (Great Western - used as an abbreviation for the area / lines under the Great Western franchise, as opposed to FGW which includes "First", the company operating them too. For tickets - about) across the road from the station, and we hope to get it into the TIC▸ (Tourist Information Centre) and other places in Melksham and Westbury too.    Data is available for quite a number of other stations (not Chippenham or Trowbridge, Dilton Marsh, Warminster or Salisbury though Undecided ) - but not in the "CRP▸ (Community Rail Partnership) format" url that I've used here.

I'm impressed. I haven't seen a web page load that quickly for a long time. It has exactly the information you need with no unnecessary bloat. Perhaps the local and national newspaper sites could take note.

Well, that's nice and straightforward, except for my initial confusion re the initials of the system:  CIS▸ (Customer Information System) has always stood for Co-op Insurance Society as far as I was concerned! Cheesy
