As I write this....

First time for me-

And it's mid - Sunday as well!

[plymothian]

there's a problem with the network updates!

there's a problem with the network updates!

Knew it was too good to be true!

Knew it was too good to be true!

It's often like that in the middle of the night too 

Rather good at the moment too - showing just one cancellation, Swindon to Gloucester.  Mind you, we're over two years into the franchise, over a year into AH's reign, and the services (at least at my local station) remain less that 50% of what Wessex Trains provided ... so we would need to be seriously worried if FGW^▸ (First Great Western) was still routinely showing a diagram plastered with cancellations and short running even on current service levels!

It's also slightly disturbing to report that I signed up for FGW^▸ (First Great Western)'s automated Alerting Service several months ago now and so far, have received nothing but the following message each day:

"There are no disruptions reported at this time affecting services between your selected stations, Melksham to Swindon."

- this despite the fact that most mornings the one - inconveniently timed - train that we get in Melksham runs late, and all too often gets cancelled altogether.

Grrr.
