Route of trains

The TransWilts runs from Swindon to Salisbury .... but trains sometimes start back from as far away as Great Malvern - via Worcester, Ashchurch, Cheltenham, Gloucester, Stonehouse, Stroud and Kemble. And some carry on beyond Salisbury to Romsey and Southampton.


Train services

Southbound

Currently (Autumn 2012) there are just two trains on the TransWilts from Swindon to Salisbury, leaving at 06:12 and 18:44 on Monday to Friday. At the weekend, trains only run as far as Westbury where you'll need to change - at 15:22 and 21:08 on Saturday, and just one train - at 18:19 - on Sundays.

All trains call at Chippenham (15 minutes from Swindon), Melksham (25 minutes), Trowbridge (35 minutes) and arrive in Westbury after about 42 to 48 minutes. Monday to Friday services then call at Dilton Marsh (2 minutes) and Warminster (10 minutes) on their way to Salisbury, about 35 minutes from Westbury.

Northbound

Trains return (from Westbury) at 07:04 and 19:32 (Monday to Friday), 09:05 and 15:06 on Saturday, and 17:10 and 19:35 on Sunday.

All trains call at Trowbridge (5 minutes), Melksham (15 minutes), Chippenham (25 minutes) and arrive in Swindon 40 to 50 minutes after leaving Westbury.

First Great Westerrn Timetable no. 25 shows the times at all stations, and onward connections on the Portsmouh - Cardiff line. There's a link to all the current timetables [here].




The proposed service for future years is for around 8trains each way each day - that's an hourly service in the peak, and at least one train every 2 hours throughout the day.
