Last weekend one of the 458s was stabled at Feltham. Presumably the one used Mon to Fri on Hounslow services. So not in use at the weekend

When they widened the road bridge over the tracks at Feltham a few years ago it was moving the utilities that caused major delays. Seems that they had to move them separately rather than at the same time

Last week it was still a shuttle, but that was weekday off peak

Caught one of these coming back from Kew bridge this afternoon. Very nice apart from the school kids. Too good for the Portsmouth line keep them on the weybridge service. :lol::lol:

Saw 039 at Feltham in service this morning and 028 on test at Richmond

Football fans represent a cross section of society. The vast majority are law abiding citizens and I am sure they pay the correct fare

I saw it at Feltham this morning

Weren't all these signals replaced recently under the Feltham resignalling changes? Was this problem not forseen then?

Still a vast improvement on the speed of the 450 doors. I thought that they were quite speedy

It was definitely 044 that came through Richmond non stop about 10:25

I heard the same announcement re tickets with a Railcard being invited on a Waterloo to Bracknell train on Thursday evening, so still not fixed.

Thanks for the replies. I was hoping that it was just a programming error

On Thursday evening I took the 20:50 train from Waterloo to Bracknell. On several occasions the PIS displayed a message saying that tickets purchased with a Railcard were (invalid or not permitted) on this service. I can't remember the exact phrasing. This is not the case as far as I know...

Saw it speed through Richmond So it didn't call there. Not sure if it is related but the following Windsor service was 8 minutes late. Door release at all stations was painfully slow and could have caused the delay.

Feltham is my local station. People pick up and drop off all the time. You will only get into trouble if you enter the bus stop area on the other side of the station as cars are not permitted.

I am sure I heard that SWR claimed that it slowed up unloading at stations at a time when they were trying to shave seconds off dwell times. Passengers waiting until the last moment to stow tables and struggling to exit 1716043524 Some of the earlier discussions on dwell times.

Agreed, plus there are many more points where they could be fitted. I never believed the argument that seat back tables slow down dwell times.

Looking forward to seeing them or the 701s in regular service on the Windsor services

But we are heading into summer not winter and 455s are hell in hot weather.

But as they are running regularly on the Windsor services what is to stop them being fully booked on those services and the appropriate staff trained
