The 07:17 ran this morning but was late. The information point told us it was running until 07:17, then rang out for ages and eventually when it had rang off and we pressed the button again said there was not a train for 99 mins. I rang National Rail Enquires and was told it was running 9 mins late. When the rain arrived the conductor told the 3 of us that got on at Melksham that FGW hadn't told the conductor who was supposed to working the service that he/she was and that he (the one on the train) was a last minute stand in.
Hi, Dawn .. thanks for this. There seem to be a lot of "no report"s coming up on my monitor log .... and I'm sure that many of them are because of this sort of thing. It's doesn't inspire confidence, does it?
"Digital Dorris" (what we call the Wessex Stations Passenger Info system) has a habbit of doing this. If a train does not "Report" at "your" location within FOUR minutes of the expected time then it will automaticlly vanish
