Mark Hopwood....he reads everything addressed to him
He might read his emails but he doesn't reply to any of mine! I once had a reply from his email address but signed off by Nicole Black of Customer Relations. She said she would get back to me asap but never has.

Of course he doesn't - it'd be a pretty much a full-time job doing so.

Reading elsewhere that Ben Rule has been given 'gardening leave'. No independent verification and I post as rumour only.
Gardening leave normally precedes a move to a competitor.

Only just spotted this. It made me laugh. You have been the victim of the rumour mill. My garden could really do with me having some gardening leave but I'm still hard at work. In fact I didn't even get any time off this Sunday!

Pleased to hear you are still "on-board" and glad you've had the opportunity to put the record straight.

Glad also that the rumour I read on another forum was unfounded. I was clear here to say rumour only. I've put them straight at the other place.

My garden could really do with me having some gardening leave but ...
My sympathies, Ben: I've taken the past week off work as annual leave, to 'do some gardening, etc' ... but it's been pouring with rain

William Huskisson MP▸ 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.
"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner." Discuss.

Turns out it was someone else (possibly more than one) high up at FGW▸ who is/are off to pastures new...

Hasn't a woman very recently taken over Richard Rowland's Customer Services bit? To allow him to major on being Deputy MD & Operations Director.

You're ahead of yourself - not until next month Great Western Railway ( GWR▸ ) has announced the appointment of Rachel Geliamassi to the new role of Customer Services Director. Rachel will be responsible for leading the customer services teams across its stations and trains and ensuring GWR continues to provide the highest level of customer service to its passengers. The addition of this new role will allow Operations Director Richard Rowland greater focus on operational delivery, particularly with regard to Old Oak Common and HS2▸ changes, as well as a stronger focus in his role as deputy managing director. Rachel will join GWR next month, formally taking up her role in March.
