Recommended service - hourly, according to the GWRUS. Let's work towards that service and towards ensuring all services are used.

Consultation on underutilised paths
« on: February 01, 2011, 03:00:51 PM »
Stone trains run through from Bradford Junction to Thingley Junction from time to time, but I understand that there are many more paths provided / reserved for them than there are trains.  The ORR has a consultation running about the holding of more paths than are needed ... and perhaps it's one we should take a look at.

With services from Salisbury to Swindon, and Westbury to Birmingham, through the day, the line might start to get quite busy.  It would be a great shame for opportunities to be lost because of phantom trains that never (or hardly ever) run!
