Day out to Penzance & St Ives

Post by steve74 »

Decided to go out for the day yesterday, so left my house at 02:30 to drive to Exeter St Davids where I picked up the FGW Night Riviera at 04:04.

Approaching Redruth waiting for a red.

Arrived at Penzance two minutes early.

I then took the bus down to Lands End, and upon my return took the train to St Erth, and then the connection to St Ives.

While waiting fot the HST service on my return to St Erth this Cardiff to Penzance 158 came in. (Very low bright sun by this point.)

A couple of minutes later the HST arrived (which also was bang on time to the second all the way to Exeter.
