Only direct are the 0800 ex Cardiff to Paignton and 0900 ex Cardiff to Plymouth. Nothing direct in the opposite direction.

0933 Exeter - Cardiff operated by 143 would be first direct from Exeter.
Also 1347 Paignton - Cardiff

with the 0933 Exeter - Cardiff operated by 143 would it be possible use that unit for a early exeter-plymouth service which would have the added bonus of providing a plymouth to cardiff service? ...or is the unit used elsewhere earlier in the morning

exeter-cardiff on a 143 sounds a pleasurable experience!

its really not! but not for the reasons you would think ...... it was comfortable until it became packed out, infact i would have stayed on it for hours... just a shame they dont have fold down tables |

My apologies. Meant nothing direct from Devon to CDF» early am. devon_metro is of course correct with the 0933 from EXD» and the 1347 from PGN.  |

I dont see what the problem is here, Plymouth has an hourly daytime service to Bristol/Birmingham, hourly service to London, 2 trains per hour to Newton Abbot/Exeter, hourly to Truro/Penzance, not bad for a city that is situated in a far from easy location in terms of terrain from the rest of the country! And lets face it, Plymouth hasnt got an awful lot going for it!

No! I won't have that! They've got that wonderful massive sun dial on the pedestrianised Armada Way!  |

there is the hoes .... and that large south facing open public space adjacent to the limestone cliffs
actually in fairness while at college/uni in plymouth why dont you try and get a list of people who live between exeter and ivybridge who travel in by car every day and would use the train if one arrived in between 7 and 730 then if you get enough signatures put it forward to fgw to look into

Ivybridge - PLY» would have a decent loading at that time of day. Doubt many from any further east, mind.
