Hello
Thank you for downloading the proposed timetables but unfortunately, like on the TfW website, I am unable to read this type of file on my tablet. Is there a way of viewing the timetables as PDF files?
Anyone able to explain what is going on ? Can platforms 2 & 3 now take 2 x 4 car 777's and will 8 car trains start runninng on the Southport line soon?
Are the extensions to platforms 2 & 3 at Souhport complete yet?
Seems to have been going on for months - first heard It was going to happen back in 2022 so the platforms could accommodate 2 x 4 car class 777's.
Yes I appreciate that changing at Salisbury is possible but unfortunately all the other services from Salisbury to Westbury are GWR which are unlikely to be running on a strike day (Sat 6/4/24)
Does anyone know if the Paddington to Bath will be running on 6/4?
I recall there was an hourly...
Thank you for the information. There is a SWR train at 0850 from Waterloo direct to Westbury & a 1750 as well.
Both take about 2 hours.
I need to corrrect the type of ticket I have. It is a SUPER off peak return. That shouldn't be a problem as its a Saturday?
Its 'any permitted' route.
I have already booked an off peak return from Westbury to London Paddington using GWR for the next strike weekend (5 & 6 April).
Hopefully the outward journey on 5 April will be Ok but would I be entitled to use an alternative route for the return on 6 April eg. from Waterloo via Salisbury to...
This notice appears on the GWR website under Engineering Works 17Feb - 23 Feb 2024
Saturday and Sunday - All weekend, buses will replace trains between Bath Spa and Westbury. A revised rail service will run between Bristol Temple Meads and Bath Spa.
LNR - Does anyone know which services are currently scheduled for 8 cars and which for 4 cars for Monday to Friday, Saturday & Sunday diagrams ?
The LNR website information for 'How busy is my train ' ( which shows how many seats are scheduled for each train service) has not been updated from...

Thank you.
Are the diagrams, ie. which trains are 4 car & which are 8 car, published ? How does the planned allocation of 4 car & 8 car trains cope with events such as football matches or concerts or cancellations to LNWR and Avanti services ?
Presumably sufficient 5 car 730's have been...

Why aren't 8 car trains run by LNR throughout the day on every Liverpool to Birmingham service?
Very poor service from Liverpool this morning. Both the 0843 and 0943 services cancelled giving a 3 hour gap and then the 1043 is predictably only 9 coaches.
Looks like the 1543 and 1943 also cancelled.
