Introduction - "No passenger service at present"

« on: April 10, 2007, 08:53:48 »

The boards elsewhere on this forum relate to existing services and their use and improvement. But there are also a number of other outstanding campaigns around that would fall logically into the Greater Western franchise / area if provided by / operated by a main franchise. Some are very likely and realistic candidates, others are longer term or less probable.

Please feel free to start threads here for other campaigns. And if you're a campaign organiser and feel that you've got enough web / forum traffic to justify your own board, please let me know.

Here are some current campaigns ... anyone / everyone welcome to post up a new thread with introductions and links to them.

Corsham (station on Swindon - Bath - Bristol line)

Portishead (to Bristol)

Tavistock (to Pylmouth)

Radstock (to Frome and beyond)

Henbury Loop (North Bristol)

Thornbury (North Bristol)

Oxford to Bletchley / Milton Keynes
