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.
