Got to station for 06:45 to be told it and the 07:17 were cancelled due to staff availablility.  Drove to Trowbridge, to find the 07:17 was running but late due to being stuck in a que of trains delayed by points problems at B-O-A.

It's been an awful week .... I remember Andrew Griffith's comment before the changes last year - "You'll see a big change in reliability when we bring in the new service" .... and at time I didn't understand what he was telling me.   I think it's more like "You don't make an omlette without breaking some eggs".  The eggs have just been broken again, and we hope that the hobb is on hot to get them set into the new omlette very quickly!
