The new timetable has obviously had an effect, but is it really the
timetable recast or just longer journey times that are to thank for the
improvement?

As someone who drives freight trains, i'd assume that the 20 extra
minutes it now takes us when following a stopper between Woking and
Basingstoke is more than just coincidental....
