An excellent way to help fill the underutilised resource of first class at the weekend.    I've a sneaking feeling that passengers per coach in first class is dramatically lower than passengers per coach on the TransWilts.   The difference is that the typical price per mile being paid in first  class on the main line is 4 to 5 times that of the "via Melksham" service.
