A joint timetable for FGW and ATW was in place, bus / coach companies would have had this so it is more than likely down to them.

Live in Wokingham so can tell you that it is normally 8xCar 458's, 4 or 8xCar 450's

During times of disruption we have seen 455's both refurbished and un-refurbished.

Hope that helps =]

Welcome to the present time. Rules are rules. If a driver wants to break them that is their personal choice. But don't slate them for not wanting to take the risk.
