Title: The Past Post by: devon_metro on June 12, 2008, 13:39:15 Back in the days when Wessex Trains had just started:
Timetable dated 2001/02 (http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l50/liamy_2006/Wessex.jpg) Manchester - Waterloo on a 158 anybody!! Title: Re: The Past Post by: TerminalJunkie on June 12, 2008, 15:03:29 I did Exeter to Manchester (via Newport and Hereford) in August 2001, when Wales and West gave the Barnstaple Season Ticket holders a complimentary ticket when the line reopened after the 2000/01 floods.
Coming back from Manchester it was the only time I've ever been on a train that had every single seat reserved! Title: Re: The Past Post by: Timmer on June 12, 2008, 19:43:07 Wales and West had some great through services on it's network as did Virgin XC in it's early days.
