  • Prior to April 2004 the franchise was held by the Go-Ahead Group, trading as Thames Trains. First Great Western Link shared a management team with First Great Western, a separately franchised train operating company that ran inter-city services on Great Western Main Line and associated lines. On 12 June 2005 Heathrow Connect was introduced as a joint venture between First Great Western Link and BAA plc. From 1 April 2006 First Great Western, First Great Western Link and Wessex Trains were merged into the Greater Western Franchise. Three companies - First Group plc, National Express Group PLC and Stagecoach Group - were shortlisted to run this new franchise. On 13 December 2005 it was announced that First Group had won the franchise. The services operated by First Great Western Link are now operated by First Great Western. A new livery was rolled out across the fleet during late 2006.
