20080128 05:29 Gloucester 08:09 Southampton Central - Full report: "This train is being delayed at Swindon.This is due to a points failure. " Then ...05:29 Gloucester to Southampton Central due 08:09 This train has been revised.It will no longer call at: Chippenham, Melksham and Trowbridge. This is due to a points failure. And the live train tracker at the time the train was due told me:06:43 train on 28/01/2008 shows as On time* Looking at the service a little later ... (The 07:17 to Swindon is shown running, just 5 minutes late. The next train - the 19:11 - isn't yet on the departure boards!)

08:10 ... still showing "expected 07:18" at Westbury ... it seems to have got lost into a void!
No doubt 07:36 passengers from Salisbury for Romsey and Southampton all caught the SWT train at 07:48 (that's another service just 12 minutes later), which left on time.
