New customer newsletter on the website.
http://www.firstgreatwestern.co.uk/Content.aspx?id=1827
Very similar to the old Newsline back in the days. Quite good compared to Go to... Should be useful for future releases as the customers will know what is going on.

Another example of Andrew Haines promise to provide passengers with more information. Good stuff. Why they took this sort of info out of their excellent quarterly Magazine Reach I will never know. It was of course was replaced by Go To which is not as good a publication as Reach was.

I used to enjoy Wessex's one the best (Can't remember what it was called...! )  Packed full of useful information and nice stories about local rail destinations. My dad used to want me to bring it home as he liked reading it, too Smiley

I picked up Go To recently and had a read, but it wasn't nearly as good. Still worth a read on a long journey or wait at a station, though.

Escape was the name of Wessex Trains' magazine.
