Title: Trowbridge - Penzance Post by: tramway on December 04, 2010, 11:02:50 Sat 4 Dec 2010.
Just dropped of SWMBO and spotted the an earlier Penzance service on the departure screen, unfortunately it was actually cancelled. Wonder what the demand would be if that was a regular departure. ;D But quite a few other diverted HST's are stopping at Trowbridge today so I would assume these are for the Christmas shoppers, so a big well done to FGW for providing extra capacity today on probably one of the busiest days of the year. 3 return services in the afternoon as well. Not sure how well publicised they have been as the timetabled Cardiff service at 1015 was full and standing, as usual.
