Sunday 15/6 Weymouth Canned

« on: June 15, 2008, 11:15:33 »

Today's 9.15 has been canned:

09:15 Bristol Temple Meads to Weymouth due 11:29
This train has been cancelled.This is due to a member of train crew being unavailable.

As the next service to Weymouth isn't until the mid afternoon from Westbury, would FGW^▸ have had to taxi passengers from Westbury to stations to Weymouth this morning off the Portsmouth train that runs a few minutes earlier?

Could any Bristol (and intermediate stations to Westbury) to Weymouth passenger travel via Southampton if direct train cancelled? Or do FGW^▸ have to do what Timmer suggests.

Also what about passengers from Frome/Yetminister/Yoevil etc. how do they get transport?
