A lot of freight is also booked via the avoiding lines which is always a bad shot.

Yeah, Cholsey is much better - identical freight* and clearer shots :)

*Not including Didcot - Avonmouth MGRs, but I believe these don't pass through Didcot station anyway.

Very little freight goes from Reading - Swindon. Most goes Reading - Oxford using the avoider so its pointless really.

Do you not have English lessons at school?

Anyway, if you want HST haulage, why don't you do more of the line?
