8 car 150 in passenger service

[davetheguard]

This evening I travelled on the 18.27 Exeter St David's - Penzance (2C38).

This was formed of 4 x 2 car 150s, all in passenger use.

The sets are 150 232, 202, 244, 221 according to real time trains. 4 cars are due to be removed at Plymouth.

I wonder if this is a feature of the new timetable, or a one off?

If the former, have there been any other booked workings of 8 car 150s in passenger service?

Does appear to be in the regular timetable for a Sunday, yes

I thought that was an allocation error!

It looks like the front 2 later join with the Falmouth and a Newquay 150 to form a 8 car from Penzance to the Depot
