Just to add to the debate:- The conductor on the 07:03 Trowbridge to Cardiff this morning was questioning people who had tickets from Melksham. I heard him tell someone the revenue office had instructed him to as revenues from other stations were falling!

Quote from the First Great Western Coffee Shop Forum : It's not because of falling revenue at other stations..... but cos' they don't like the ticket man at trowbridge.... he is telling people to get the Melksham ticket cos it's cheaper.... He might get the sack cos' they say he must not tell u to buy it but can sell it if u ask  |

Interesting as the 7.03 from Trowbridge connects with the 6.43 from Melksham.

The fares structure, like the timetable, seems calculated to put people off travelling by train to and from Melksham, doesn't it? The fares structure leads to us being questioned as if we're suspected of a crime, and the timetable is set up so that it's pretty rare for there to be a train at the right time.
If I didn't know better, I might think that there was a co-ordinated effort to time the balance against the TransWilts ...
