Title: Extra Newquay service 26th May Post by: vacman on May 03, 2008, 00:05:31 FGW are running two extra services on late May bank holiday monday 26th May, there will be a 1504 HST to Padd and a 1735 unit to Par aswell as the 1019, 12xx and 2025 departures.

A very good move I think!! Beware, its Run to the Sun weekend!!

Now what about the farce last night at Par then? i'm sure oooooo can fill us in on that one! No comment! However I see the 14:03 PAR to NQY was held for over 10 mins today to connect with the 10:05 ex PAD, a good move as there was a large amount of passengers for it!!
