Whoops! Ok, imagine my comment with XC^▸ instead of FGW^▸ .

Same point.

There is no point for tourist taking bicycles on holiday in Newquay.
If one took them then the whole family would need to.
That would be about 4 per family, which a HST^▸ couldn't take, might as well say none.

The front power car will always be on the platform at Newquay Wink

- the TGS may not be able to, nor may the rear power car!

Saves the problem with crowding.

One small point about Newquay platform is that it's the longest in Cornwall, (and IIRC^▸ longer than any in Devon) so Rear Power Car is on the Platform.
