Looking on the gwr app for trains tomorrow from marlow and according to the app, a full weekday timetable is running with half hourly service at peak times.
The gwr changes to journey times poster states there'll be an hourly service on the marlow branch tomorrow.
Assuming the app is incorrect...
They've just announced, displayed on the screens and displayed on the app that the 1650 dicot stopper will depart from platform 11
However, platform 11 has an IET on it and the usual 387 is on platform 10.
Realtrain Times states platform 10 too.
I was unable to load my weekly season ticket onto my smartcard this morning at a gwr station. All readers gave an error code 11.
When in the ticket office at paddington there was others who had this issue and I've seen in another thread it seems to be a uk wide issue.
I have a monthly season ticket covering paddington to maidenhead but I want to travel from paddington to reading.
Time is Important so want to get a non stop train (not a Didcot stopper that stops at Maidenhead).
Will a single from maidenhead to reading in addition to my season ticket, even...
Hi
Heading into work tomorrow from marlow to Paddington.
Looking at fares on the gwr app and when I select the 0706 departure it shows as an off peak fare of £24 return (usually this time on a weekday is a peak fare).
Its a standard weekday not a bank holiday so is this fare correct?
Will...
The past few months at maidenhead station i've noticed people wearing high visibility jackets with "welfare Marshall" written on the back.
They only ever seem to be on platform 5 (which is used once an hour (once per 30 mins in offpeak).
What are they actually there for and do they exist at...
I make a return journey daily on gwr and am delayed a lot
I submit a delay repay request for all my delays, for past few years no issues but in past few weeks all my requests are unsuccessful (successful on appeal).
All journey are genuine. I have a gwr annual season ticket on a smart card so...
For those not familiar with this branch line, during off peak times trains run through between Marlow and Maidenhead hourly, reversing at Bourne End.

Tomorrow 2 of us are travelling windsor & eton central to marlow.
I have a season ticket Paddington to marlow so will buy a paper ticket windsor to slough (using season ticket for rest of journey)

I know the intricacies about the layout / tokens and signal system at Bourne End have been discussed in the past.
A fault occurred at Bourne End yesterday afternoon and has yet to be fixed, meaning no trains between Bourne End and Marlow
On my daily journey.i connect from main line to a branch line.
The branch line journey is timetabled for 7 minutes but actually takes 6 minutes.
On Friday I was delayed on the main line. My planned journey had me timetabled to arrive at 1736, but according to realtraintimes the train I was due...
The 2208 departure from Paddington to Didcot is scheduled to run on the main line to dolphin junction where it changes to relief line to didcot

This morning the 0633 from maidenhead to Paddington (starting at Didcot) was showing on the screens at the station, the gwr app and real train times that it was going to depart from platform 2 (as it always does).
One very loud commuter told everyone that today it will depart from platform 4 and...
The driver on my train this morning, apologised for the delay and said this is "due to a nationwide problem with the signaling... (something inaudible)"
Camden Station currently closed due to structural damage.
Its nice coming from HB branch and to sail straight through kentist Town and Camden Town.

For the past 3 days theres been an early morning revenue block on the ungated platforms at Paddington (looks like its aimed at the 0703 arrival from Bristol).

Alongside the exit area to platforms 10 and 11 at Paddington there has been hoardings hiding building work for a number of years.
I always assumed this was related to the Paddington Square / new bakerloo line entrance but now that's complete the hoardings are still there. It makes the exit area...
Is the above journey an option using contactless?
The single fare finder on tfl website suggests it is and is charged at £6.20 off peak but national rail is giving me a fare of £18.45 off peak
I travel with GWR daily and always check their app to see if my journey will be disrupted.
The app currently says "there is a good service across our network" but when I check on live train times I see that numerous Didcot stoppers are cancelled. Surely this isn't a good service.
I've also...
Yesterday on a cross country service whilst sat in the platform at Reading the train manager did 3 announcements saying we have an unattended bag in coach F with a luggage tag on it, if your name is (what was on the tag) or if you have a bag in coach f please come down to the coach.
