Nice video! To point some things out here, I think it’s pretty rare to get the occasion of Platforms 4 and 6 at this station. That rugby match was a little interesting too. Still a shame though that Platforms 13 and 15 only use the zones only for GWR’s IET services whilst the others don’t use them for ANY train.
Nice catches! I am going here tomorrow and might record some announcements my self. Any tips like where to stand? Also how many minutes before the train is scheduled to arrive do the announcements play and what platforms are allocated? to Rodger and Anne. Like which platforms have Anne as the announcements and which have Rodger?
Anne announces on platforms 1, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11 and 12 and Rodger announces 5, 6, 7, 8, 13 and 15. Unfortunately the announcements are quiet now due to ongoing roof repairs. I find the speakers on the uncovered ends of the platform towards the Bath end the best. Note that the announcements for 1, 3 and 4 only play on their own platforms (i.e you won’t hear announcements for platform 4 on platform 1), whereas all the others play across the grouped zone (i.e announcements for platform 8 will play on platforms 5, 6, 7 and 8). Good luck!
@@ringermikeythere were three. I guess the service wasn't profitable and they wanted to make post-COVID cutbacks, so asked the DfT for their blessing to ace the service and they agreed. Probably the same as why GWR stopped running to Brighton
Rodger makes it sound so suspense

@@Parallel395 Thankyou soo much! This really helps
Hey Parallel, why is the coach colour turning red?
It means those carriages will no longer be for passenger use after that point and will be detached.
Awesome video when is your next video?
Thank you! And probably next week
Why dose south railway doesn't run to Bristol anymore?

I hate these horrible broken robots. The previous announcements were far better. The male voice was done by Phil Sayer in those.
Whaaaaat? They don't even sound close to robots. What u on? I'm soooo confused
