Ipswich (10:09) To London Liverpool Street (11:17) (Seat's Reserved: Coach C: Seats 59A 60A.)

London Paddington (12:45) to Swansea (15:43) (Seats Reserved: Coach B: Seats 37 and 38 ) Does not have no Letter?

When I last did it (last summer) I went from Birmingham to Tenby, we changed onto your train at Bristol Parkway - back then the 1605 from Swansea was a 153. I believe 143s can also turn up as well.

Oh right, I was hoping this route would be run by a Pacer train, what’s the route like into Tenby itself?

Trains to Tenby are most usually a 153, but a Pacer or 150 can also make the trip. Because of loadings in the Sumemr months, two coaches are often required, which means that there can sometimes be 2 153's coupled together. Rarely, it can be a 150 plus 153.

In 2006 I had the joy of a HST to Tenby, then a 3 car 175 back!
