Why don't i use mainline trains?

I would like to have travelled more
GWR trains
To some people, my phobia about trains may appear weird, to me it is a real issue as I am disabled.
Several years ago, I saw a video of a lady who fell under a train, and got crushed, I thought, "that could be me."
There were many differences, the lady was drunk at the time, I rarely drink more than a pint of beer a day. My concern was that being disabled, the step down from the train to the platform is a risk for me. That is why I limit my train travel to GWR trains which have a lower carriage, this means I can step out of the train, straight onto the platform.
The restriction bothers me slightly, but there is a lot I can see in the Bristol area, if I wish to go further, I can use a coach
