The First Great Western Service Arriving At Redruth Will Not Be
IT’S no wonder First Great Western are Britain’s worst performing train operator.
The company, which came out worst in the rankings for fare rises, crowding and delays advertised a new direct line between Falmouth and Redruth, sending out thousands of leaflets.
However, as Cornwall locals rejoiced at the new service, FGW announced that it had in fact, made a “small mistake” and that there was no new service at all.
You couldn’t make it up. Actually, First great Western did, didn’t they?

…Running, but First Great Western will now take seriously the needs of where people want to travel from & to and look at helping to promote new lines. Fat chance - although rail lines cost less than new roads to build. the Ministry of Transport doesn’t want that, just to give people want they think that they want!
