Summer Saturdays to Newquay this year have the same HST (High Speed Train) service as last year but a new local (unit) service is provided after the last HST at 20:25 off Par then 21:30 Newquay through to Plymouth. Unfortunately although booked a unit it runs non stop Par to Newquay and Newquay to Par, not even a Quintrel call on the return, madness as it has to stop to await the level crossing anyway. Tight timings not an issue as the train is at Newquay for 15 minutes. Stupid???
