Regrettfully more incorrect information has been printed in the Wiltshire Times, October 21, where Cllr Potter of Bradford on Avon is not aware of the position of the First Great Western franchise.

The franchise runs to April 2013 with an extension option to 2016 if FGW wishes to take it up. FGW have announced that they will not take up this option so their franchise ends in 2013 as originally agreed.

Roger Newman, Chairman, West Wiltshire Rail Users Group.
