Post by: GWR 158 on October 06, 2021, 16:53:16
Hi all,

Does anyone know whether class 158s are used on services between Plymouth and Penzance?
Thanks, GWR 158.

Yes on some services,but beware the increasing number of class 158 units that operate on GWR that have several windows  steamed up with moisture and water droplets that prevent clear views out of and into the train by Passengers and staff.
Many of these steamed up windows,it seems, have unsatisfactorily been without any Senior Management attention to organise rectification for a considerable time.
