Flagged up to me ... a reduction in Sunday services come the May timetable.  Said to be just while they sort out staff shortages, and to help make for a reliable service.   I am doubtful, bearing in mind the Saturday Westbury to Swindon service was reduced (2 round trips to make it reliable) but last summer and autumn stats were swill not good. Hard to compare with so many engineing works going on, but here are servivce count changes from an April Sunday to a June Sunday on which (yeah) there are engineering works but they are a long way away from Wiltshire.

From 17 to 14 services from Warminster to Salisbury
From 25 to 22 servicee from Westbury to Bristol Temple Meads
