  • Summer 2017 Newsletter from Railfuture Wessex Branch
    Summer 2017 Newsletter from Railfuture Wessex Branch Chairman’s Message Well here we go again with another newsletter, the big news being the winning of the South West franchise by First/MTR. To date we do not think the contract between them and Department for Transport has been completed and so we continue just with a watching brief. The Company’s first public offering *Improving South Western Railway looks at first sight to be good, but on closer study it seems to promise little. We will have to do much work to understand where these improvements can be delivered … and how! Passengers will not be interested in a 10% journey time saving if intermediate stops are to be cut. No doubt this will be the subject of a consultation in due course. In the meantime, good luck to Andy Mellors who is the new MD of South Western Railway, previously having been GWR Engineering Director. *read it online here: http://www.firstgroupplc.com/about-firstgroup/uk-rail/improving-south-western-railway.aspx On the West of England Line (Waterloo-Salisbury-Exeter), we can see no benefits from the new franchise: no new trains, and a journey time saving from Salisbury to Waterloo that can only be achieved by cutting out Woking and Clapham Junction stops. Railfuture is set against that and will mobilise passengers and members to say “no” when the consultation appears. Why the DfT specifies such matters which have no passenger benefit, we do not know … but we will work with First/MTR, local MP’s and rail authorities to ensure long term passenger benefits accrue.
