Closed Call to Retain Bedwyn, Hungerford and Kintbury's Direct Hourly Trains To London

Closed on

With the Network Rail's 'Western Route Study' (October 2014) stating "Following electrification to Newbury, the 2019 Industry Train Service Specification (ITSS) assumes that the current London Paddington – Bedwyn service will operate with electric rolling stock and therefore be truncated at Newbury. A diesel shuttle service is proposed between Newbury and Bedwyn" we call upon the DfT to specify, in the forthcoming franchise extension document, that Bedwyn, Hungerford and Kintbury must retain their current level of direct Paddington services.
