Title: Article On FGW Rural Lines - Your Thoughts Welcomed
Post by: Lee on October 04, 2007, 13:43:39
My good friend Cat Hobbs is currently writing an article about rural transport in the south west and wants to talk about rail as well as buses.

Regardless of whether they have been mentioned on the forum before . I would greatly appreciate it if you post any issues that you think should be included on this thread.

There is a very good chance that they will end up in the final article.

Perhaps you might like to glance at the St.Ives (Dec) timetable,
looks like a real killer if you are hoping to get to work in Penzance
by 09.00, the new arrival for these unfortunates is 08.57!! Wonder what
will happen to these passengers??

To be honest mate theres never more than about 5 passengers on that train anyway! with the revised times it connects better with the 0845 pnz-pad service. Most commuters from St Ives work in Redruth and Truro and therefore catch the 0740 from St Ives to catch the 0743 pnz-pad.
