Quotes from the above link :

"First Great Western is delivering its promises to transform travel for train customers in the region, just 100 days after the start of the Greater Western franchise."

"Alison Forster, First Great Western’s Managing Director said: “The pace of our work in the first 100 days of the franchise has been relentless. The fact that so much has been achieved in such a short space of time shows how determined we are to transform travel for our customers. We said we would do as much as possible, as early as possible and that is exactly what we have done.”

"As yet unpublished punctuality figures for the first eight weeks of the franchise show a dramatic rise in performance, with around nine out of ten trains on time."

"Alison continued: “The Greater Western franchise began on 1 April, and 9 July marked 100 days of the franchise. To see that so much has been achieved in just a few weeks is absolutely astounding, and is a credit to staff throughout the company.”

"Later this month, First Great Western will publish its new timetable for this December, following extensive consultation with customers and stakeholders."
