Hi all
I'm staying in east Devon in early June and looking at doing some trips on the lines out of Exeter St Davids / Exeter Central. I'm particularly interested in doing the Avocet line to Exmouth, but also interested in the lines to Paignton through Dawlish, to Barnstaple and to Okehampton.
My question is how busy are the lines out of Exeter likely to be in early June? The kids will be in school so it won't be the summer holidays, so during weekday daytimes are these lines likely to be fairly quiet? If I did the line through Dawlish to Paignton, I'd get a GWR local stopping service and not a XC or GWR long distance service.
Any information is appreciated, particularly on likely loadings on the line to Exmouth and best time of day during the week to travel to avoid busy times. Thanks
