Hi everyone,
I am new to the forums and very glad to be here. I love all things to do with the railways and love traveling by train. But I have a question for you which is driving me crackers.
On August 18th, my sister and I boarded the 11.03 Penzance train at Paddington, platform One.
We were in coach A and facing the direction of travel as we left Paddington. I’m sure that somewhere along the line, we ended up back to direction of travel. This is confirmed by videos I made along the Devon coast and at Plymouth. I’m sure we aren’t imagining this.
Where then, would the train have reversed (if that’s the correct term) I know this happens at Ely but I cannot remember where, along this GWR route, this would have happened.
You’re my only hope of settling this once and for all before me and my sister end up completely doolally.
Thank you in advance.........
