But to see a 125 set stabled in Truro which later became the train before mine 1430 hrs to Paddington this was a good spot.

Departing Penzance on Wednesday evening and arrives at Exeter New Yard on Thursday 20th April

The down run is direct to Penzance and the return covers the Newquay and Looe branches with the latter going to Coombe, but only as far as No 1 Ground Frame not the station for anyone planning to see it on this branchline. Runs as STP, so it could change!
Regards, Karl (Friends of Penmere Station). Many thanks Karl.
If anybody is out to see it on the Newquay or Looe branches to see this working, staff, or otherwise I'd be delighted to receive pictures.
