Paddington-Penzance Beds

[I T S]

Hi all,

Could anyone advise me what route the PAD-PNZ beds takes (2345xPAD)? After Reading next stop is Taunton. Would it branch off at Reading and go via Newbury then onto Taunton? For also some help, I done this on 1st July if thats any help for routes!

Cheers,

ITS

Newbury
Bedwyn
Westbury
Castle Cary


HTH

 

[Techniquest]

It varies a fair bit, never guaranteed to go direct down the B+H.

 

[First class]

This is the exact booked route tonight:

Stations are written in full (e.g. TAPLOW [TAP] ), along with their code, and junctions are listed in a way such as 'OLDOKCE' which would be Old Oak Common etc...

The route varies by day, engineering works and route knowledge retention rostering... It will always call at booked stations, the route it takes will always vary. No chance of finding out what way it went that far back in July!

 

[MidnightFlyer]

Most of the time its booked via the Berks and Hants (Newbury) but can just as easily go via Bath (and does with engineering work etc; basically Taunton-BTM-Chippenham-Reading)

 

[TEW]

Sunday nights it can go via Yeovil as well.
