1Z39 13:33 London Marylebone to Swansea
13th May 2020During 2015 Engineering works at London Paddington, GWR services were diverted to London Waterloo and Marylebone. South Wales services were routed to the latter with a reversal at Banbury as the Oxford-Bicester line wasn’t open all the way yet. You will be in charge of the first leg of a westbound service nonstop between London and Banbury.

-As with the southbound scenario 1Z40, this is not a perfect recreation of the 2015 workings. I do have a more accurate idea of timings for the westbound services, but they are not exact, in addtion, AI is protoypical Chiltern Mainline based on a 2019 Saturday timetable and GWR powercars are numbered based on video footage of these workings-
A lovely drive along the Chiltern Mainline in a HST thank you
