The child on the first train would probably be 31 now. Wow time flies!

Ginsters Cornish pasty happened to wearing on the 4 x 2 car class 158s were 158821/825/827/841. They were first new to the south west England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿. Now they are wearing the Transport For Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 livery. There were all sort of liveries on the 2 car class 158s. After Ginsters livery is Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 and Borders Trains livery, 1st Arriva livery, 2nd Arriva livery and finally Transport For Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 livery. 158s were the Alphaline services. 😊

Greatly miss the Alpha line, this was my my choice out of Waterloo to Warminster. I could plck up my train in Kent then a short walk to the main Waterloo station to pick up my link to the West Country and the trolley dolly serving coffee n' tea but could never understand why Manchester by Waterloo was byway of Cardiff twice a day, but never mind it was a great sevice waiting for me at Waterloo when ever I needed it. Sadly gone and now a poor, rubbish service with often a change at Salisbury or travel backwards from Westbury. Alfa Line . . a lost wonder on the network.

transport for wales is now the new train company because arriva trains wales have now ended their company after 15 years dave
