Just as the torrential rain gives way to light drizzle, 165106 passes Dorn on 12 March 2018 with the 1P27 10:59 Great Malvern to Paddington GWR service. This was running nine minutes late, which in early 2018 counts as good service on the Cotswold Line. On this day, as usual, there were several cancellations. Local MPs have been petitioned to get something done, and get the problem sorted out. In the 40 years that I have been taking photos on the line, this is by far the most protracted period of unreliability. GWR needs to stop placing adverts in the local press saying how great their new trains are, and actually get the trains running properly!
