19:40 London Paddington to Plymouth due 23:49
An additional train service has been planned to operate as shown 30/05/16 19:40 London Paddington to Plymouth due 23:21.
This is due to overcrowding because of an event.

Shame about the Wembley play off result from a West Country point of view.

West Country services departing from Paddington after 1800
1800 Penzance
1830 Plymouth
1900 Penzance
1907 Plymouth via Bristol
1927 Plymouth via Bristol
1930 Plymouth
1940 Plymouth (first stop Exeter, not even a Reading call!)

It certainly was for us Argyle fans, although Cornwall winning the County Championship at Twickenham on Sunday redressed the balance a little...............as did England crushing Wales (again!) - we even missed all our kicks to give them a chance!!! Grin

Unfortunately however it was routed behind the 19:30 which itself stopped at Reading, Newbury, Pewsey, Westbury, Castle Cary, Taunton & Tiverton, hence the 19:40 still taking over 4 hours to get to Plymouth.
