06:44 Cancelled.
07:17 15 on into Melksham, 17 beyond. (2 on, none off)
19:08 7 on into Melksham, 4 beyond.(3 off, none on)
19:50 Cancelled.
The 07:17 was 8 late from Melksham and 25 late into Chippenham.
What HAS happened to a service which carried an average of 300 passengers per day (109000/365) prior to the timetable change?

Are you keeping a regular count? If so those figures would be useful to marry up with mine when I do my count.

Hi Daniel Since the new timetable I've had a spreadsheet going, which I update daily, and I update the graphs every Friday. Currently, although the graph does not show this, reliability for January 07 would be off the scale (although I have altered it on my computer) and is currently at just below 70% reliability. If you look tomorrow evening (Friday evening) the graphs will have been updated and trends or events during the week will have been posted above each graph.

Daniel, My use is sporadic so I don't keep regular counts but since September 2005 I HAVE gone down to Melksham station on occasional days and got the numbers. I've also noted numbers when I've travelled and posted them up and - importantly - I have some fairly continuous counts for a couple of the trains through last Autumn. Overall they paint an interesting picture, but one needs to be careful of stats - especially those which I took just on the days I happened to be travellling. You'll also find older stats (look at the "sping" and "autumn" files) here: http://www.wellho.net/dft_foi/about.htmlChris - your graphs are useful grist to the mill. We can't pretend that the current service needs strengthening because it's crowded out, but we can seriously make the point that the quality and schedule are both so poor that it's impractical for most people to use it, and that First "could do better" - MUCH better. How are you coping with all the spurious reports and flack coming off the live departures system, which seems to work very well when there are just a few problems with the trains, but creaks and groans under the current chaos? |
