One of the disadvantages of increasing intermediate stops is that, as we have pointed out already, certain prestige trains have to suffer, notably the Cornish Riviera Express, slowed 15min to Plymouth by stops at Taunton and Exeter; the Torbay Express, decelerated 18min by stops at Reading, Westbury, Taunton and Newton Abbot; and the Bristolian, which adds 14min in order to allow for a Bath stop and an increased load.

However, in all cases, if you cancel and do not wish to rebook you lose the money. To me this seems rather unfair if, for example, the passenger is being told to self-isolate owing to age for several months and cannot select a future date.
When the goal is simply to be as faithful as possible to the material—as if a movie were a marriage, and a rights contract the vow—the best result is a skillful abridgment, one that hits all the important marks without losing anything egregious.
