Unfortunately,  we were informed last week by our train operator, West Coast Railways, that Network Rail will not allow this charter to run as there is no path available between Reading and Westbury.  This is because extra trains are being diverted along our route through Melksham and therefore Network Rail are unable to accommodate us on that day.
