For the discussion of railway matters, questions, etc, for the Wessex/South Central region of the UK. The list is run in conjunction with WRGEN, which is the regions Rail-Gen list.
The boundaries for the list are based on the following counties: Berkshire, Dorset, Hampshire, Isle Of Wight, and Wiltshire.
The Desiro fleet is to undergo an overhaul cycle at Eastleigh Works starting in February. Apparently the depot at Northam is too small to accomodate this work.
