I, too, have recently experienced travel on a single 153 - http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/coffeeshop/index.php?topic=2045.msg15403#msg15403 - was yours the St Ives Bay Belle, by any chance? :) Title: Re: Short-Formed Trains (15/03/2008) Post by: richard bickford on March 16, 2008, 10:55:45 No reports on how busy it was, but it was quite late by the time it got here (Saltash).
