Reliability of Train Service - 25th February 2005
Since the start of the new train timetable in December 2004, there has
been a decline in the the reliability of trains operating on the
Cotswold Line. This has been caused by a number of operating issues,
including the introduction of new trains and engineering work between
London and Didcot.
The poor reliability of the train service is making it difficult for us
to guarantee bus connections at Charlbury and Kingham. RH Transport
would like to reassure its customers that it is doing all it can to
ensure customers are not inconvenienced.
Buses on Railbus C1 and X8 normally wait for up to 5 minutes for late
running trains, and longer for afternoon peak time trains. However, even
this has proved insufficient on occasions. Our drivers use the
information available to decide how long to wait but have to be mindful
that people may be waiting for the bus at other places along its route.
We strive to provide the best possible service and ask our customers to
bear with us whilst First Great Western Link identify and resolve the
cause of this unreliability.
