Indeed Looe can only take two cars, but a 153 seemed to cope last summer, and this summer FGW▸ are putting back the hourly service (which was removed in December) so it wont need strengthening. St.Ives will NEED to be 4 cars or chaos will ensure.
Wessex have always hired in two extra 2 car units for the summer peak (off CT). Surely FGW could do the same off Central or maybe even Arriva? If not Cotswold Rail (who already do alot of work for FGW moving power cars to Loughborough for MTU▸ fittment) could more than likely provide a loco hauled rake for the Weymouths??? Or theres always the stored 153/158 at Eastleigh??
