I was looking to email Andy Saunders at GWR (Great Western Railway), as their Integrated Transport manager, on an issue to do with the new bike policy. Unfortunately my mail to andrew.saunders@firstgroup.com (the last address I had for him) has bounced back. Is Andy still there, or if not, does anyone here know who his replacement is...?

He may have left FGW (First Great Western) in June 2012, according to Linkedin: see https://uk.linkedin.com/in/andrew-saunders-85a7bb34  Undecided

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.

I think that's wrong - he was certainly at FGW (First Great Western) in 2014 (because I spoke to him a couple of times that year), and his LinkedIn profile says he currently works for GWR (Great Western Railway).

Though I do like LinkedIn's very trans-Atlantic title of "Transportation/Trucking/Railroad"...

His name was mentioned to me last week, and as the person to currently contact, on bus/train linkage.

grahame - thanks for the reassurance. Have now retried with a gwr.com address rather than a firstgroup.com address and it's got through.

Rather surprised that the firstgroup.com addresses have stopped working, though, rather than just forwarding to GWR (Great Western Railway)!

Indeed: there are some members of the Coffee Shop forum who have very strong views on the subject of Transportation on the Trucking Railroad in the UK (United Kingdom) ...  Roll Eyes Tongue Grin

Mine still works, and I was of the understanding that they would continue to work, so not sure why it failed in this particular case.
