    Worcester Shrub Hill [WOS] - Paddington [PAD] Day Return (arrive before 9am)

    Thanks soil. Is there a way to find out the punctuality of FGW's service between Hereford & London Paddington? I've had a look around but couldn't find anything. Ideally I'm looking to see how often services into London are delayed and if so by how long.

    Delay Compensation

    Thanks for the replies, folks. In this case the journey was delayed for more than two hours due to a line closure after a person was hit by a train. My understanding is that a 100% refund on the return ticket price is due but I'm not sure that this actually applies here if FGW are using the...

    Thanks, I was looking for any interior pics of the refreshed 180s but couldn't find any so I'll try and take a couple when I'm on (assuming the Adelante is running).

    FGW Adelante now in passenger service

    Brilliant info - thanks for posting. I've been looking for this for a couple of days and FGW customer services didn't know which services are served by the Adelante trains. Planning to get the 09.54 GMV to PAD so will keep fingers crossed. I hate those old Turbo trains with a passion. :lol...
