Bearing the unique BT Livery 51302 + 59469 + 51317 P460 sets off for St Ives once more. The slight exhaust from the leading coach of the set bearing witness to the fact that the power is on. Copyright Steve Widdowso
The appearance of the uniquely BT liveried DMU in the area came as quite a surprise and as I worked at Goonhilly Satellite Earth Station at the time it was a source of pride and pleasure to me. KJ. Quite what inspired BT to fund this show is unknown.
Many thanks to Steve for capturing in black and white the action.

Herewith are some interesting scans of the latest GWR and National System Maps. Some points to note: The cover is believed to be a Cornish view. The legend defines three types of route - main, regional and local. It also shows integrated bus routes (with through rail ticketing). The legend does not define whatever is going on between Whitland and Carmarthen.
