We then swap platforms and board the 2123 Great Western Railway service to Bradford-on-Avon arriving at 2348 on Wednesday night.

A little interjection, as it appears there is a slight time discrepancy: The service to Bradford on Avon departs Portsmouth Harbour at 21:23 but we are at Portsmouth and Southsea so this service doesn't depart until 21:27


Edit:
Fixed Now
