19:22 Newquay to Par due 20:10

19:22 Newquay to Par due 20:10 will be cancelled.
This is due to slippery rails.

My goodness ... it's not as if it's loco and coaches either (can't be a Castle, surely?).   Should be plenty of powered wheels; Newquay must be exclusively 2 car class 150 now?

The driver for it was on the delayed 16:15 Penzance to Paddington which struggled to get up Camborne Bank.

I?d almost forgotten we were in leaf fall season as it?s caused very few problems again this year.
