The 2 car 175 on Exeter to Penzance mid afternoon was dangerously overcrowded on Monday. I boarded at Teignmouth and had to get off at Newton Abbot. Many refused to board there. Serious questions need answering Heidi!

175112 On 2C20 playing up at Exeter. Set swap booked for Plymouth 175006 https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:P22969/2026-04-29/detailed

A lot of cancellations for various reasons on the new XC Cornwall services, which are now part of the half hourly schedule.

Karen?

Waiting rooms are closed at night.

Train is proceeding to Paignton albeit 74 late on departure from Teignmouth

Time for a rethink on the Class 802 being based at Laira- perhaps. Class 800 looks to the layman more robust or Dawlish proof.

I tried 777004 to Kirkby and back yesterday. The main gripe was the air-con was not working in the passenger saloon. Driver's cab was definitely blowing cold air though. Some PIS screens were stuck not working correctly either. For balance much better than a 508.

A lot of IET sets parked up at Laira, minimum of 4, 1420 on a Friday. Is that just displacement from the strikes or awaiting repairs?

Signal is worse on wifi in first.

83L out of Bristol

I came down from Leeds on LNER to Peterborough, via Thameslink to Farringdon - no ticket barriers and on to Crossrail. I rode the line and tried to use my ticket to get out via the barrier at Paddington to no avail. However as my All line rover works very few other barriers this wasn't a great...

I had two rides on 390148 yesterday, Birmingham Inter - Euston and Manchester Piccadilly - Euston. I was travelling in First Class coach J on both trips. Observations : The wi-fi has been degraded significantly, none of new PIS screens working on train. The seating moquette is quite poor shows...

It is an average 49 minute wait at Carlisle for the following Glasgow Avanti. Not really a good option. However it is about a 12 minute fester at Lancaster with same platform transfer to the TPE Glasgow service.

I can remember Dr Death from the 80s. Was always at Exeter St Davids on a Saturday. I believe he was a solicitor by trade. Still got the trademark coat when the 50s where last in Cornwall.

From the evidence of the 1007 to Liverpool last Saturday yes. The steward was asked a few times.

Yes, there was drinks runs on both services. No complimentary alcohol served on services originating before 11am. So the 1007 Euston is a breakfast train, which the full English was excellent, but the 1130 offers the rest of the day menu including alcohol.

I travelled on two Avanti trains on Saturday. 1007 Euston - Liverpool. The half coach of First class was full bar one seat. Standard premium was well loaded three carriages, mostly fans going to Liverpool v Crystal Palace in both classes. There was an at seat service, which with just one host...
