Melksham line safe The single track link between Bradford Junction and Thingley Junction over which a service from Westbury - Trowbridge - Melksham - Chippenhan runs has been designated a Community Service. This, it is said, will breathe new life into this route and ensure its long term future. Reopened in 1985 with two trains each way per day. This was increased to five per day until the December 2006 timetable change when the service reverted to two per day. The Save The Melksham Train group campaigned for improvements to the services on the line. There are now twelve trains each day.
