Title: Easter 2012 to Cornwall ? Post by: Cornish Traveller on April 04, 2012, 18:26:33 :o If you are going to Cornwall tommorow (Thurs 5th) afternoon/evening without seat reservations get to Paddington Early as all trains fully booked in Standard now, will be mad scramble for Coach E as only coach non-reservable !

Obviously no chance of a reservation, so this might put him in a good starting place for the battle for Coach E. Many thanks for the answer Title: Re: Easter 2012 to Cornwall ?
