Title: Re: Pocket Rocket at large Post by: chuffed on July 06, 2017, 03:08:54 Talking of mosaics...the ones in the Temple Meads subway to the left of the relocated coffee hut ....the aforementioned hut completely obscures the Clifton Suspension Bridge mosaic. I wonder if NR have any plans to relocate all three of them. They seem obsessed in covering up what wallspace remains with GIANT platform numbers. Still I think that's an improvement on an advert for the University of Cardiff!
Title: Re: Pocket Rocket at large Post by: grahame on July 06, 2017, 06:07:22 I believe that mosaic is at Falmouth Docks. Yes, it is. Ironically, I suspect it will be quite rare for the shortened HSTs to reach there. Title: Re: Pocket Rocket at large Post by: marky7890 on July 11, 2017, 22:29:48 Although in 2013 FGW ran a special service with a full length HST down to Falmouth Docks to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the line. It ran early on a Sunday morning before the usual 150 started its day on the branch.
