Description
Between 2013 & 2018 (I believe) every year GWR ran a loco hauled service between Penzance & Exeter vice unit, using the seated coaches from the Night Rivera sleeper - a massive upgrade in terms of comfort!

On the 9th of August 2014 I took a trip down to sample this service and rode it From Plymouth to Exeter and return, 57604 in GWR Green was the motive power for the day.

Enjoy the 57 thrash!
