Coming out of Bedminster station,did not have time to take details, no camera phone and no pen.
Wednesday 22 May a talk at station Road in Weston Super Mare to improve the service on the Bristol to Taunton route.

Shame it falls on the same evening as Rod Stewart appears at Ashton Gate

A Rail Passenger Forum covering services between Bristol Temple Meads and Taunton

The Severnside Community Rail Partnership is hosting a public forum for rail passengers who use services between Bristol Temple Meads and Taunton.

The forum will take place in Weston-super-Mare on Wednesday 22nd May. The Methodist Church meeting room venue is a walk of approximately 4 minutes from Weston-super-Mare station.

Representatives from Great Western Railway, Cross Country Trains and Network Rail have been invited to provide an update and take questions.

The focus for the evening is the current rail service, the possibility of any enhancements to existing services in the short term, plus matters relating to station facilities.

Please reserve a space and submit any questions for GWR▸ (Great Western Railway), Cross Country Trains and Network Rail in advance of the forum via this Eventbrite platform. Questions may also be submitted via email to severnside@gmail.com or on arrival at the venue.

As a regular commuter between Weston and Temple Meads, and also use Weston to Parson Street for football, and Weston to Taunton for cricket, I will make the effort to attend and see what it discussed

Come on, Hopwood, tell me so.
