Last week I thought finally, FGW have cracked it. Each day my train to work was on time, and each day it ran to schedule getting me home too. Well done FGW I thought.
And Instill think well done on one thing, there are more carriages on the cattle-truck service from Ealing Broadway to Banbury I catch at 1733, when it's on time, and that is making journeys more comfortable. So well done for that.
However in terms of punctuality normal service has been resumed. Now to be fair this mornings train to work left my home station on time...then somewhere on route we managed to start to run late, for no good reason....unless its the wrong sort of heat (as its quite a warm day.) Then tonight the train home was late in leaving Ealing Broadway too. It's more disappointing as I know that a punctual service can be done, and was maintained for a week.
As for the alleged air conditioning, having followed the MDs advice, and persuaded fellow passengers to close windows to help it be more efficient, I've decided it's obviously powered by an asthmatic hamster...we've given in and opened the windows again.
On a plus side I am looking forward to a gratis First Class trip to Cornwall later this week. Thank you FGW for that. And for those of you who don't like to complain, it is worth it when your complaint is genuine...
Anyway must go, I've found a slight draught and want to try and cool down.
