As you may know , as well as attending a major event in Bristol , I have been out & about raising awareness of the impending Melksham service cuts.
I was struck by just how many passengers were unaware of this.

Against all the other cuts (8 coaches off Cardiff - Portsmouth, etc) this is a small one (and a much cheaper one to reverse!). I'm disappointed but not suprised. From my personal blog this a.m. ... "We have altered the trains from Monday". "Please check for changes to your trains". "First - Transforming travel". Theses are the messages writ loud in the publicity surrounding the current train timetable changes. And they read positive, don't they?
I was very disappointed on yesterday evening's train from Swindon to Southampton - the very last commuter service on that route - to find that many travellers were unaware ....... Although we've tried, via the "save the train" web site, to reach people, let them know, and have them join us in a campaign for an appropriate service, we're a David v their Goliath.
First have made themselves look like arrogant fools .....See http://www.wellho.net/mouth/974_The-last-commuter-train-through-Melksham.html for my full blog / report |

I went to get the 07.01 Chippenham to Bristol TM on Saturday 9/12/06, the nice station staff at Chippenham did let the customers know over the PA that this train will not be running from next week and the first train to Bath/Bristol would be at 07.41. I think if they put a Poster they would get to many people with complaints.  |

It's always suprised me how few people knew of the service actaully existed. It's mreo surprising that some on last nights train didnt know of the cuts. Perhaps that was First's marketing plan - Don't tell anyone and hope they go away quietly.
