Seem to be a few gremlins on the system at the moment! All timetables for Go Cornwall have been set as from 14th April, so nothing showing for any timetables before then!

The issue I would be most concerned about is that if this become permanent it opens the potential to closing the access from Guildford Park Road even to ticket holders. It would be a significant inconvenience for anyone going to catch a train from Guildford Park Road if they had to trapse all...

Reading to Gatwick appears to be operating normally until late afternoon tomorrow, but in the evening it's just east of Guilford. Presumably linked to the dispute when getting to the GWR Main Line.

Guildford to Farnham - starts and ends in Surrey, but goes via Hampshire!

Ryde to Shanklin

Not looking good from Farnborough today. Sadly may need to change plan today and spend the time looking to buy a car instead

TSSA are striking on GWR on 6th October too, which is the reason they are quoting

Thanks for the link. Interesting that just on a cursory glance at services I use there are a number of changes that don't appear to have been advertised in the pre-change publicity. A major recast of 315 Hopley's Redruth to St Agnes timetable and the withdrawal of 75 link to Liskeard Station...

Having looked at my App today a 5 ticket bundle of a whole network tickets costs £20, so equivalent to £4 per day and town networks all appear to be £10 for 5 so £2 each as opposed to £2.50 is bought individually

You can get to Slough on a Travelcard but would need to catch TfL bus service 81 from Hounslow, and it takes a while!

A single First Cornwall Day Ticket is £13, if bought via their App. If your friend travels on buses in Cornwall even semi-regularly then they can buy a pack of 5 Day Tickets for £30, valid for a year, so that works out at £6 per day.

Whilst I understand the reasons for not diverting to St Erth Interchange particularly for the T1, the Lands End Coaster is primarily a tourist route so needs to make it easy to pick up tourists and St Erth Station is somewhere they will arrive. What exacerbates the problem is there is no...
