17:36 Swindon to Westbury due 18:17
18:39 Westbury to Swindon due 19:21
20:47 Swindon to Westbury due 21:28
20:47 Swindon to Westbury due 21:28 will be cancelled.
This is due to a shortage of train crew. |

Quite.....when the schools are off and people could be encouraged to travel for leisure......by train! They could be, but for the fact that the parts of the SW have some of the highest Covid rates in the country, which may also be behind the staff shortages. The Pandemic is not over whatever Boris says. |

October 2021 ... 512 services scheduled, 490 show as running and calling at Melksham, of which 352 registered "on time". Here is the rogue's gallery: 21:12 Westbury a shortage of train crew
18:55 Swindon a shortage of train crew
18:01 Westbury a shortage of train crew
16:41 Swindon a shortage of train crew
07:20 Cheltenham Spa a fault with the signalling system
06:36 Southampton Central a problem currently under investigation
05:33 Swindon a problem currently under investigation
20:22 Cheltenham Spa a shortage of train crew
19:17 Southampton Central a shortage of train crew
05:33 Swindon reason: --
20:22 Cheltenham Spa reason: --
15:39 Westbury a shortage of train crew
14:32 Swindon a shortage of train crew
09:10 Westbury a fault on this train
13:40 Westbury a points failure
06:36 Southampton Central reason: --
10:05 Weymouth engineering works not being finished on time
09:04 Chippenham engineering works not being finished on time
21:32 Westbury a shortage of train crew
19:59 Westbury a fault on this train
16:28 Westbury a shortage of train crew
15:19 Swindon a shortage of train crew Very much using automated tools today - I have the raw data if I need to go back. Cancellation rate around 4% (works out at 3.7% or 4.3% depending on what actually happened in the three "--" cases) which is hugely improved on the 8% type of figure we have seen, but still needs attention to get it below 2%. |
