Just approaching HFD» (Hereford - next trains)

That was a FGW▸ (First Great Western) empty stock I just passed..........I thought during the blockades the train(s) that made it as far as hereford stayed there for the next morning....I use (s) as I thought there was only one HFD train.................and I thought this formed the HFD in the morning
