The article contains the following services infobox:

  Newquay
Bodmin Parkway   Virgin Trains
Cross-Country Route

  Newquay
Lostwithiel   South West Trains
very limited service
  St Austell
Terminus
or Bodmin Parkway
  First Great Western
Atlantic Coast Line
  Luxulyan
* Not all trains call at this station

Can somebody explain the difference between the second branch of the first entry (FGW limited service to Newquay) and the last entry (FGW Atlantic Coast Line to Luxulyan). It seems to me that they are duplicates, and I'm minded to merge them, but best to ask first.

Also there is an entry for South West Trains. I've checked their web site, and I can find no reference to SWT trains venturing further west than Plymouth. The entry says 'very limited service' without indicating what that means. Is this a timetabled service, or just an occasional excursion. Can anybody supply a source?.

Not sure on SW trains. Here is a sort of answer to FGW and Virgin at Newquay railway station. The limited service appears to b a summer service and maybe should be changed as such Changes to FGW timetable for summer Simply south 17:25, 16 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
The use of these boxes is currently Wikipedia talk:WikiProject UK Railways#Station links - why?being discussed at UK Railways - please join in.
Unless it has changed again, there is a once weekly SWT service to Penzance. Down on saturday evenings and return on Sunday afternoons. It appears in the FGW Devon & Cornwall timetable. Geof Sheppard 07:27, 17 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
