This is effective as of Sunday 12 September - at present the Sunday
service is half-hourly. The Monday-Saturday service will remain half-
hourly.

Seems a rather retrograde move.
Exactly - I mean Heathrow needs *less* public transport access doesn't
it? *And Sundays are not a peak day for air travel are they?
You have to wonder at the logic behind this change.
Likely to just be engineering alterations, the times (past the hour)
have also changed, there is also a reduction in some of the calls
(Southall loses one of its two stops per hour) of the Reading trains
after 12th September and retiming of some of the fast services. It
will be interesting to see if the Connect trains resume in the
December timetable.
