I was on the 1810 XCT to Bournemouth which was running to time for a change, while the SWT down slow to Portsmouth was around 15 mins late. On some other occasions the XCT train has been stuck behind the slow, leading to delays by Southampton.
Yesterday the signaller brought the (down) XCT train into the (up) platform 3 and allowed it to get away smartly and pass the slow before Battledown. There's often a lot of criticism from passengers but that was smart work from the signaller and this passenger much appreciated it!
