24 hour gap in northbound service

19:32 Westbury to Cheltenham Spa due 21:27
This train has been revised.It will no longer call at: Melksham.This is due to a problem with line-side equipment. Last Updated: 15/04/2009 18:42

So that leaves a gap from 07:17 (Wednesday) to 07:17 (Thursday) in the northbound service!

I understand it did go via Bathampton and they want ot send the 19:01 Chippenham arrive in Melksham at 19:11, but we waited 20 to join the single line and when we go to Merlksham, four people got off & 1 got on.

I'm under the impression road transport was sent to cover the gap.
