bobby m's syrupweybridgewanderer sandown race course, 2 trains an our stop at esher but on race days they stop loads of trains there that would normally be through services
so theoretically they could get the bournemouth and portsmouth trains that run fast to/from basingstoke to stop at green park on match days
Only if the platforms were long enough to deal with these trains.

Huntley & Palmer On a slightly different tangent, as nearly all the manned stations on that line were to be shut down, Reading West and others have a stay of execution until December.

8 carraige trains stop at chertsey which only holds 4 carraiges, you are told to allight using the front 4 carraiges only
similar problem on some platforms at clapham, at virginia water, isleworth.... this really isn't rocket science

Huntley & Palmer Doubtful but it would be better for us West Readingers, would also mean not having to go to a shitty pub in town pre match

Scarface Will getting a train from Reading station and then walking 20mins through Green Park actually be quicker than just getting a shuttle bus ?

Upper West Ginger Incidentally, there are no proposals to actually close Reading West, Mortimer and Bramley stations. Perhaps somebody is proposing to de-staff them, and close the booking offices?

Yup, that's what I said. They have already installed the less than reliable new ticketing machines which are already being subjected to vandalism and attempted robbery. People are wedging card into the coin slots to catch the money then pulling them back out again to receive the cash
