Post 786 comments that there will be restrictions on the use of off peak tickets from Paddington out to the Thames Valley branches. Is there a concise source for which departures are now being excluded. does not appear in the timetables I have been looking at
I live near the railway and am informed by NR when they are undertaking maintenance work. Generally the location is given as x chains and y feet from London.
The latest letter gives the position as MLN1 13m 0512y.
13 m from where?
Given that the 769 stock has not run on the Gatwick route or any other, how can the timings be calculated and put into the timetable?
Connections from the west to the UK's 2nd airport need to be improved especially with the plans for a 2nd runway (expanded taxiway) at Gatwick.
Latest alleged views from GWR is that 769s are pushed back to 2020 timeframe if ever
Turbos will remain in Thames area and fill in for 387s working HEX
More FG owned HST configs to be deployed in SW in lieu of Turbos not moving
Financial arrangement made with DfT
