Funny But True

@FGW Perhaps in future it would save a lot of bother if you'd just send out notices on those days the trains are running on time

@FGW the race is on. Will the BBC website load before we get to London! Just passed Cardiff so my money is on the train #rubbishwifi

Lovely start to the week. Half the size of trains = twice as busy. Great work @FGW pic.twitter.com/DyEElPAGWO

Urgent appeal, if anybody finds the train carriages that @FGW seem to keep misplacing please let them know.

Classic nonsense at Paddington courtesy of @FGW "this train is now boarding" oh really. Is it? Is it a ghost train? pic.twitter.com/uInnhCPFCQ

Is it a @FGW policy to announce train platforms at the last minute, in a homage to the Spanish bull run?

FGW in brewery: 'we are sorry to announce that due to a pump fault we are unable to supply beer at this time. You are entitled to no refund'

@fgwkmc I see that @fgw are selling timetables for £5. Not bad seeing as most fiction is upwards of 6…could do with more unicorns though.

@FGW 0734 DID-PAD has 8 coaches instead of 5! WAY too many seats & not enough over-crowding. If it leaves on time I'll know something's up..

@FGW your WiFi has a slower baud rate than Sputnik I. I'm better off using binary smoke signals.

@fgw Does this refer to ripping us off? Presumably you meant getting away with it has never been more rewarding? pic.twitter.com/aAOSLgV6Zb

@fgwkmc suggestion @fgw. We have quiet zones. Can we have cheese quaver free zones?

@fgwkmc @turningthetide @FGW delayed behind a delayed train due to earlier delays….. Sorry, we're working really hard…

@FGW on the itchy and scratchy cd-rom, is there a way to get out of the dungeon without using the wizard key?

Good news folks! No seats available as usual, but the Express Cafe is open for all your extortionately priced snacks and drinks #FGW @fgwkmc

@FGW @CommutingRants @fgwkmc "I'm sorry for the delay to this service" says the driver. "I'm not surprised to hear those words" I replied.

@fgwkmc Waiting quarter of an hour for a @fgw train is the longest 55 minutes of your life.

"Better late than never" @FGW might as well make this your slogan

@fgwkmc @CommutingRants the only way @fgw can guarantee services will run on time is to go by road #delays pic.twitter.com/krGl31JFb6

.@fgw #fgw it’s not difficult is it? You point the train at London and then deliver on time rather than late again and agin and again…

While waiting for yet another delayed @fgw service I enjoy browsing the contemporary fiction. #fgwfail pic.twitter.com/2GrLt7jYGo

Psssst @FGW i heard @LondonMidland calling you unreliable, old fashioned and useless. Are you going to take this lying down?

Stop the clock @FGW after 1.5hrs standing I have a seat! Hurrah!

Porto, Santorini, Dalaman, Halkidiki… just some of the places BA would fly me, for the price of a return rail fare to London with @fgw

Just seen weather 4cast sponsored by @fgw so can we expect summer sometime around October ???? or will it be cancelled altogether ????

@FGW Glad you finally got around to offering WiFi but I've got an ear worm now. Only the crumbliest the, flakiest WiFi … #flake

Being forced to stand in a crowded and hot @fgw carriage makes me realise what the kids' teddies must feel like in a washing machine
