🛤️ We've worked with train operator Great Western Railway and contractor BAM Nuttal to extend the platforms at St Erth and Lelant in Cornwall.
It means an extra 10,000 passengers can travel to and from the popular seaside destination of St Ives during peak summer times.
📈 That's a 25% increase or another 2,000 seats a day!

So good to hear us eferred to as 'passengers' and not customers! You're not an offshoot of Tesco ...

Travelled on this line many times and great to see them getting on with improving it and getting the railway to meet new demands!

Cornwall is my home and my ancestry. The train to st Ives, great days out of summer, all my life. So glad to see the upgrades. Hope all infrastructure in Cornwall gets upgraded. Can't wait to come home again next year and be there again.

good news, and good to hear of future improvements at St Ives, 2 platforms will vastly improve the service.

Excellent!

Good to hear that passenger demand is up. Next thing is to get passing loops in place, if the line can't be doubled, to enable an increase in trains per hour. Frequency is freedom.

Not before time 👍🏻👍🏻

Assuming the "5-car train" means 5 cars of 20m length, that should also mean the platforms would be suitable for a 4-car train of 24m coaches (at only ~4m shorter).

Just please - KEEP the St Erth semaphore signals

@GustavSvard Год назад

ERTMS is coming at some point, but that doesn't actually mena they have to remove the semaphore signals does it? It must be possible to link the semaphores into a new signalling system such that the semaphores just show what the computers are also saying?
