I asked LU why Travelcards weren't valid on HEx and HC for these
two weekends in June. The answer, according to them, is that
because of Network Rail engineering work, there are only two
tracks available into Paddington on these weekends, which means
that HEx services with be "unreliable" (LU's word) and subject to
extended intervals.


It *is* mentioned on the FGW website, but as far as I can see it
only applies to the Sundays.


Doesn't this happen *every* Sunday?


The Reading-Paddington journey times on FGW for 11 June are longer than
the normal Sunday timetable.
