Where should I drive?
Where could you drive to pick up a train instead?
Perhaps there isn't a train at the right time of day to or from Melksham? Perhaps you would do better for a long distance journey to drive to a different railhead and catch the train from there? This is an experimental page that suggests some alternative railheads for you.

Bus User Group (Option 24/7)
The Melksham [Rail / Transport] User Group and its predecessors have partnered with the train operators over the years to promote growth of services and their use. However, we are embarrassed to promote the current service with its awful reliability record. For regular users who are robust to the issues it is still useful - for newcomers there's a significant risk of their first planned use going wrong, quite apart from the worry beforehand of not knowing if it will run.
Four officers of the group met in December 2022, and we have decided on a hiatus until the spring. We'll maintain insurance and CRN membership; our annual Zoom account runs until mid-year and we will occasionally feed online media and deal with correspondence from it. In the meantime, we also recommend you to the groups linked above.
