xx:23 EUS-WVH services call at Watford Junction

[edit]

Hi, the xx:23 services ex Euston call at Watford Junction as per TravelLine and the timetable

Cheers

Go on Network Rail's site and find Euston in the 'Our Stations' section in the for passengers tab. Click the xx:23 departure and Watford Junction will not be on the calling points. --390VirginPendolino390 (talk) 16:34, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's xx:37 at Watford - check national rail enquiries. If you want I can provide photographic evidence. -Mattbuck (Talk) 23:13, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
OK Show me. I must see. --390VirginPendolino390 (talk) 17:04, 30 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is 390045 just leaving at 1240. I can guarantee that the train did actually stop - you can see the guy with the thingy to wave to say all clear on the left. -mattbuck (Talk) 17:36, 30 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Well howcome the tannoy anoucment at Euston and Network Rail say that the first calling point is Coventry? I guess Watford is limited or withdrawn.--390VirginPendolino390 (talk) 17:43, 30 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
How come the train stopped there, and if you ask national rail enquiries you'll find the service on there (search watford to wolverhampton - 0 changes, virgin service departing at xx37). -mattbuck (Talk) 17:59, 30 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Even the National Rail Enquiries live departures say that the first calling point is Coventry. And not once have I known them to stop at Watford.--390VirginPendolino390 (talk) 13:47, 9 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The tannoy announcements don't include Watford Junction as a stop if the stop is pick up only (i.e. people should not leave the train at the station). This is determined by the U next to the time on the timetable (http://www.virgintrains.co.uk/assets/pdf/timetables/vt-timetable-a.pdf). You will also notice that the same applies to some services that serve Milton Keynes Central. You are incorrect by stating they do not stop at Watford Junction, as an occasional user of the 1823 Euston-Wolverhampton service for over 3 years now, I can say with absolute certainty that the service does stop at Watford Junction. The same applies to Milton Keynes when I have used the 1743 service. A quick check of the VT website requesting a ticket from WFJ-WVH brings up the 1837 & 1937 services ex WFJ --Geezertronic (talk) 16:13, 31 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
