Hi all

Are there any Penzance drivers on here by any chance? I am potentially relocating from Dorset to Cornwall and exploring whether it would be best to stay with GA and transfer to Go Cornwall or jump ship to First. The rail benefits is a major plus with First but I've no idea how Penzance works. Is there a mix of full time and part time rotas, is there term time only stuff and how is the seasonal uplift for Lands End covered? I'm guessing Penzance drivers work mainly the 17, 19, Coasters, Mouseholes and T1s?

It looks like there is a big difference in rates now too with this month's increase at GA, but I've been around long enough to know that the best rate is not always the best place to be!
