For whatever reason, you ask?! It'd be very boring if we sent out the same diagrams, every week! Unfortunately it hasn't quite gone to plan this evening, but the intention of putting a set on to SPM tonight is to balance the sets and work 1A04 tomorrow.



No, this won't be the last HST from Frome.
Any idea what will then, seems like the only bit of line they frequently covered that they won’t on the last day.

Apologies if this has been asked and I have looked back through last few pages but do we know the 18th May diagrams yet ?

These are provisional diagrams, that first appeared on WNXX.com at the start of this month - now way back on page 32 of this thread. As I said then, I think the three-letter station codes are pretty obvious in these cases.

0657 PLY PAD
1045 PAD SWA
1429 SWA PAD
1830 PAD TAU
2132 TAU EXD

0729 EXD PAD
1121 PAD GMV
1435 GMV PAD
1815 PAD CNM

0645 BRI SWA
0929 SWA PAD
1330 PAD BRI
1600 BRI PAD
1822 PAD HFD

0650 PNZ PAD
1300 PAD BRI
1530 BRI PAD
1803 PAD PLY

Plan is for 1803/1815/1822/1830 departures to be side by side in Paddington Plats1-4.

Can anyone confirm if a seat reservation will be required on the 1830s extension between Taunton to Exeter St Davids or will that section be a free for all?

That hasn't been a HST for a while now.
The FRD thread is completely wrong for weekends, as the HSTs don't have set weekend diagrams anymore, just STP diagrams for a particular day.

Does anyone know whether there will be any HSTs to Paddington next Sunday, 5 May? Is 1A29 a good punt as today?

Hi, I'm still kinda new to trainspotting, and completely new to the forum, so I'm still yet to get entirely to grips with workings and headcodes and such, so would anyone be able to tell me the remaining HST diagrams stopping at Taunton on the 4th and 11th of May. Any help is very much appreciated, thanks.

Edit - Allow me to also extend that 6th of May as well

Hi GWHST107 - easiest to teach you how to do it. This is what I would do.

1) check the 'diagrams' page:

https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/frequently-requested-diagrams.170615/#post-3666639

2) look at a rail map, check what route Taunton is on, where trains go to and from that pass through the station - I assume it is your local station so you probably know that already. eg Paddington to Plymouth trains pass through so from the above link you can see that monday to friday the 09.03 Paddington to Plymouth passes through and it is an HST (usually...)

3) Get a timetable - even just the paper ones from the station, or a pdf of them from GWR official website, of that route. See when the 09.03 from Paddington stops at Taunton.

4) go to the station to look at it.

Of course you can also look at webpages like Realtime trains 'advanced' http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/search/advanced to see what stops at Taunton when etc, but get to grips with 1-3 above first and you will know.

But bear in mind these HST services are now subject to short term alterations and substitutions so keep an eye on this thread each day where alterations get reported, this is esp true for weekend days and the dates you asked about are saturdays so you need to keep an eye out on posts for saturday dates.

I expect the schedule for sat 4th may will be posted here soon, so then you will be able to work out what times they will go thru Taunton.

Hope this helps and i have not stated the obvious to you, if so apols.

Just got on the 17:13 from Bath, 13 late and it's an HST stepping in for the normal 800. Chance for someone to get a last run! Sorry didn't get power cars but front one is standard first livery.
