Current and future summary
The Final timetable for December was published last Friday - 10th November - with just two trains a day on the truncated Transwilts - from Swindon at 06:19 and 18:42, returning from Westbury at 07:02 and 19:35. Our first officlal glance at Weekend trains show a Saturday service from Westbury at 09:00 or so, and anothe rmid afternoon. There are return trains mid afternoon and mid-evening. Sunday trains are limited to 2 evening trains from Westbury to Swindon, with no return trips at all.
Reliability of the current service remains an issue, with the 17:02 and 18:09 services cancelled again during the week - that seems to happen every week at some point now. And it's not as is there was another train half an hour earlier or later - the previous train is at lunchtime and the following train starts out from Westbury well after 9 p.m.
The current service is virtually unusable because of its horrendous reliability issues. The future services timing make it virtually unusable because of the total lack of trains at times they're needed.
