Well this morning the 07:17 left Melksham 3 mins EARLY! Good job I and the other 5 or 6 that got on didn't arrive on time. We were also told that it left Trowbridge early and then it sat at Chippenham for 4 mins to get back on time.

Train on time this AM , this was due to the 7.03 not arriving later at Trowbridge. It was still at Frome.  |

If a bus runs early its a bigger sin than if it runs late (as the next one has to pick up many more passengers) does the same rule apply to trains? (I would not be expecting people to hang around for 12 hours by the way) but I imagine the rule would apply to the Melksham line as well as those that enjoy a more frequent service.

Yes, I would sugget it would be a bigger sin to run early. The 21:43 on Sunday night arrived in about 3 minutes early and sat and waited for time ... with the handful of passengers on board wondering what was happening. Running early as the train did thie morning can mean tha people needlessly miss it; not a problem on the Central line at Marble Arch, but more of an issue at Fishguard, Melksham, Luxulyan ....
