HST's for FAW?

Post by Rich_Eason »

Walking home tonight I noticed two guys installing "HST Stop - 2 + 8 Cars" signs some distance beyond platform 2 and 3. Assume they are doing the same for Platform 1 (would imagine it would just be short of the signal), so can we assume that HST will now be stopping at FAW? :?

Interesting you should mention this, as Stonehouse and Stroud have both recieved new HST stop boards, the same as you describe; white not black.

FGW HST's have selective door opening now. That could be something to do with it .....

Perhaps it isn't advised as such but this train, 1C01, starts at London Paddington and runs to Swansea via Bristol Temple Meads. Leaving BTM at the previously stated time of 0715.
