Norman battles missing staff for the title of Worst FGW WTF Factor. Services disrupted by broken down or faulty trains.
@FGW 11.11 cancelled from Oldfield Park to Bristol. Next train not for an hour. Could you not have got the 125 to stop to replace this?
— Andrew Kelly (@AndrewKellyhome) June 17, 2015
@AndrewKellyhome Hi. Apologies for the cancellation. This has been due to a fault with this service. Additional stops not always possible -G

Still at Paddington at 1.15am waiting for broken-down sleeper train to be fixed. I've had pleasanter evenings, @fgw.

@FGW the 7:26 Camborne to Penzance is cancelled? What is in place for replacement please
— Nigel Green (@beaumont888) June 18, 2015
@beaumont888 Hi Nigel, sorry for this. It's late as there was a fault on board last night. You will be able to get the 07.55 service though.

@FGW Why was the 7:15 from Paddington to Didcot Parkway cancelled? Can't even blame Network rail for this one, can you?
— Vivek Upadhyay (@fubbu) June 18, 2015
@fubbu Hi. This was cancelled due to a fault. Apologies. Grant

@FGW broken down train again. Travelled every fri and sun for 3 years London to Redruth and the service keeps getting worse

@FGW Plym-Pad yesterday had no aircon and useless wifi. On today's return the train's broken down, stuck at Reading. Waste of time & money.

@FGW 25% of your carriages have faults?!? I'm guessing that doesn't include aircon faults, otherwise it'd be 100% pic.twitter.com/tdW7MmyX3p
