Debate: Plymouth Train Services

Train Services in Plymouth! The Best or Not The Best!

Train services being disrupted in the south west is nothing new, nor are they trains generally new. Why is Plymouth lagging behind and what improvements should be made?



We feel that it is especially important that during the recession services need to improve as it is vital that trains supply tourists into and out of the south west region. One of the major destinations in the south west is Plymouth.
