bh_red Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 .......was anyone else due to be on the 11:54 coming back from Southampton today? which was cancelled because of rail problems in...........wait for it..........Oxford!!!!! what a farce when the next train turned up at 12:54, 3 carriages and with majority having to stand all the way back, while the train stopped at every stupid like station between Southampton and Bristol, including a STUPID station at Avoncliff??? where a woman was moaning because she couldn't get on with her bike, despite the train being JAMMED full. Good Old British Rail (or whatever they are called these days!) P.S - please don't call me NTTDS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bringbacktherobin Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 The 18.10 back to bristol on saturday was fine, bit delayed and a bit slow but other than that it was fine, nearly everyone had a seat. Looks like you just picked a wrong day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrs Court Red Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Always pays to look at the train details. Trains going to the south coast from Bristol are shocking in terms of stopping everywhere and the type of train used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somered Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 The trains back to Taunton on Saturday were all full and crowded, £27.50 to be treated like cattle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foghornred Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Yes we were supposed to be on that train and had to stand all the way to Bristol,even though we had reserved seats on the original train.Apart from the football and the trip home a good weekend.
