Suggestions for outings this weekend

[PudseyBearHST]

Hello,

I'm planning to go on some train rides this weekend. Sadly next week, I will lose my British Rail pass because I will be no longer a dependent so I want to make the most of it . I live near Paddington, love HSTs and get free train travel on most TOCs so if you have any good ideas for train journeys, I would be grateful.

Thanks,

Pudsey Bear

If you live near Paddington can you travel anywhere on National Rail?
If you do give me a hour to make the absolute most out of it

Maybe have a trip to Pembroke Dock & back on the HST from Paddington?

Or a trip to Newquay & back

Yes. But that is the difficult part as my options are endless but only have 2 days.

Thank you for the suggestion. I was definitely thinking about a nice, long journey on a GWR HST especially since they will be going soon so I won't get an opportunity again regardless of free train travel or no free train travel!

Hereford is a good run as well, if a little slow...

If you're feeling a little more adventurous, then a HST up the MML to Nottingham is quite fun as well.
