Don't believe everything you hear

"It's just an empty stock working really" they told me about the train that calls at Melksham at 05:53 on its way up from Westbury to Swindon. And - foolish me - I believed them.

This morning, there were three passengers on the train as it arrived in Melksham and another joined - that's four passengers for whom there's no public transport alternative at all ... the very first bus to Chippenham doesn't leave for another 90 minutes ....
