That's a bit disconcerting as we've booked a two-stage trip to London for next month, going that way instead of direct from Hereford specifically to enjoy Gerald's offerings, and with a 29 minute connection at Newport. I believe if we are delayed sufficiently to miss our onward FGW service (Advance tickets) we would be allowed to take the next one, which is half an hour later, so I'm not going to panic too much.
Not sure if we'll get breakfast as we only have 44 minutes on board, but it wasn't that much dearer than an anytime standard class ticket (couldn't find any Advances between Hereford and Newport) so thought we might as well.
Hope they don't take it out of service permanently if it keeps having problems . Would be a shame, and a waste!
