Yes as above it was the new bridge. On the train south bound this evening we crawled over the bridge where works had been occuring due to the speed restriction. I assume NR staff will return tonight to finish things up and get it back to normal operation (didn't see any activity as we passed).

I'd completely agree with the provision of sockets and frankly find it bizzare people are arguing against it. In fact I would wager that the majority of rail users (especially those younger) would want charging facilities. I have a portable power pack but given the option I would always use a...

Happily report my commute to Bristol was uneventful, HST was on time this morning and probably quieter than usual. This evening looked to be busy with people from London getting off but not busy on the last train out. The best thing was how excited the replacement train managers were. The one...

I'l hoping on joining a London bound HST which starts at 0707 in Taunton as it steam through North Somerset. Only going to Bristol but expect it to be busy. Could join the train an hour earlier as that one only starts at Weston so is likely to be quiter but the thought of a 6:15am alarm doesn't...

For getting a HST if you haven't had a chance to look at realtime trains just go and wait on the footbridge at the far of end of the platforms. That way when the platform is changed you descend the stairs and come out infront of the vast hoard of people running down the platform.

I get a FGW HST to work everyday from a short platform so only coaches A to D and the door of E close to D are open even though the other door of E and of F is usually just about on the platform. You regularly see somebody going charging right to the end of the platform thinking they have got...

Perranwell on the Falmouth branch line is a request, I just use an out stretched arm. On the times on the way back when no staff appeared prior to the station the train has always just stopped. Saying that it is very rare on the journeys I've been on that the train doesn't stop and atleast...

Great thanks

Hi, a question regarding combining tickets and onward travel. I have a Bristol Temple Meads - Yatton season ticket but am regularly travelling to Cornwall after work on a Friday to visit my other half. Having read various searches I want to check something. I can buy an off peak return from...

Seems all services north of exeter stopped, Xc service terminated, onto a bus to Taunton then who knows. Very jolly FGW man at exeter (didn't get his name but had a mustache) got us quickly onto the bus and on our way tho.

Currently on the 1651 from truro heading to bristol (after a change), guard hasn't mentioned it yet but the boards at truro were displaying 'cancellations likely', hoping not delayed for too long, also got a bus near weston to look forward to.

A couple of weeks ago I was on the Sunday evening 1955 from Plymouth to Bristol Temple Meads. Sat at the station waiting to leave and 2 northern girls got of the down XC train which had just arrived from up country and got straight on my train aaccompanied by a rather bemused guard. They sat...
