Topic: Trowbridge station - signage and lack of interest (Read 2199 times)

Have you noticed that since last December, the only train timetables at Trowbridge have been for the Portsmouth - Cardiff and Bristol - Waterloo routes - quite remarkable that First have chosen not to advertise their Weymouth or Swindon services! I've brought this to their attention several times, but I note that new timetables put up in the last few days still exclude all FGW services except those on the old Wessex Trains main line.
Me thinks that actions speak louder than words - we're assured that First are interested inthe future of the service to Swindon and yet they don't take the simplest of steps to promote it. And I note that yet again this morning that the 07:00 Westbury to Swindon is cancelled due to a train fault - the ONLY train from the old Wessex Fleet (now known as the West fleet) to be cancelled.

Yes the 7.17 was cancelled there were 4 people waiting, I was given a lift to Chippenham. So I do not know if they put on a bus. Good start 1 year on since First Group took over.

There was a poster but at Trowbridge to advise Melksham service, but this been replaced with a poster showing Bristol/Weymouth Service.

It does appear, then, that promises to put a sign up and leave it up are empty ones .... how the hell can anyone learn about trains and catch them if there aren't even timetables displayed at the stations they call at!
