This Saturday is loco hauled according to some staff I've spoken with. There is also a move on RTT» from Burton ot to Bristol Temple Meads into platform 11 arriving 5 minutes before the Weymouth service departs from P11. DBS» of some kind I guess.
Hst unavailable due to the champions league final.

It looks like the train paths have changed too, only by a minute or so on the way to Weymouth, significantly on the way back though. I feel sorry for anyone who wanted to connect onto the 2030 CrossCountry service back North, as its highly likely they'll miss it as a result of the change. The return working now arrives at Bristol TM‡ at 2029, it was previously advertised at 2009 arrival.

The return leg for some reason is marked as 55mph top speed, the outbound leg 95.

Locomotive on the front to Weymouth, and pushing from the back on the way home?

This is the timing load of the train from origin. It is likely it changes somewhere before going on the branch. Therefore it most likely changes somewhere for 55mph on the way down, and change somewhere for 95mph on the way back. |

Most likely run-round in Jersey sidings. |

This Saturday is loco hauled according to some staff I've spoken with. So, it's back again is it? When I looked to check the other day, the GWR▸ Mixing Deck journey planner showed the Weymouth Wizard to have been removed from the schedule altogether this Saturday (because of the unavailable IC125 I presume). |

Don't DOO▸ it, keep the guard (but it probably wouldn't be a bad idea if the driver unlocked the doors on arrival at calling points).

Curiously the loco hauled timing from RTT» at 0906 shows on the gwr app as being operated by SWT▸ , and with the SWT £13.00 promo valid.

The unusual long train is the set is doing footex tonight after the game.
Operating a 0005 Cardiff central to Bristol temple meads.
It's then operating a 0140 Bristol temple meads to Cardiff followed by 0345 Cardiff central to Paddington. Callimg Swindon at 0510 and reading at 0606, arriving Paddington at 0649, before returning to burton.
Will football fans still be going home that late?

I've now left Coach L as some of the 'enthusiasts' are a little too boisterous for me.
Can anyone explain why hanging an inflatable crocodile out of the droplights and taking pictures of it is a thing?

Perhaps because sticking your head out of the window listening to a diesel engine eventually bores even the most hardened enthusiast and alcohol blurs the sense about what a 'thing' for adults is? My sympathies to those just wanting a pleasant day out on the train. |
