Notes :
(1) TRUST reports the delay between Warminster & Westbury to be due to Westbury panel having to knowledge of the train running until arriving at Warminster (no advance notices received), it being booked to run into the down reception line which was blocked. A further delay was caused by 59202 not being ready to take over the train. On the return journey the train was delayed between Woodborough & Pewsey due to steaming problems.
(2) Route reported as "E line via Up Ludgate".
