However, in light of the railbus’ return to Cirencester, the Old Station Experience event at Cirencester Town Station in Sheep Street will also now be open for an extra day on Sunday, October 26."
Thank you - I have just negotiated an extra day out (for Sunday) and will see if I can work out Sunday busses.

The event will be open from 10am until 4pm
I wondered if I could get there ... finishing a meet up at Postern Hill, Savernake, at around 12:00. By car, 35 minutes according to Google. By public transport, hourly connections ... 12:30 departure from Postern Hill gets me to Cirencester at 14:55 - classic example of public transport not working out.
