Do You Take the Train to College? Do you take the train to college? This term, capacity on train services will be reduced - this is to help keep you safe and maintain social distancing. Because of this DCC, Exeter College and the train operators are working together to provide additional coach journeys. These will operate as closed journeys, so will only carry Exeter College Students. We are asking that you use the coaches we have provided instead of taking the train. Turn over for a timetable, and a map where to catch your coach. Coaches will be clearly marked with their destination, and staff will be on hand to help you. It is important to remember: • When travelling be respectful of others and maintain a social distance • You must wear a face covering when using public transport • Continue to wash/sanitise your hands regularly and avoid touching your face and eyes For further info or advice please speak to the travel team 01392 400100 or email [email protected] Catching your coach at St David’s Station Departing from Bus Stop 1 P1 from Paignton Great Western Rd (Library) direct to Exeter College (op by Turners Coachways) Morning journey leaves Paignton library at 0735 (will also set down at Honiton Rd Park & Ride) Afternoon journey leaves St Davids station at 1640 (will also pick up on request at Hele Rd & Honiton Rd - Miller & Carter) T1 from Torquay Railway Station direct to Exeter College (op by Dartline) Morning journey leaves Torquay station at 0740 (will also set down at Honiton Rd Park & Ride) Afternoon journey leaves St Davids station at 1640 (will also pick up on request at Hele Rd & Honiton Rd - Miller & Carter) N1 from Newton Abbot Station (Layby opp station) direct to Exeter College (op by Greenslades) Morning journey leaves Newton Abbot (layby opp station) at 0750 (will also set down at Honiton Rd Park & Ride) Afternoon journey leaves St Davids station at 1640 (will also pick up on request at Hele Rd & Honiton Rd - Miller & Carter) Departing from Bus Stop 2 A1 from Axminster Railway Station (Bus Stop) direct to Exeter College (op by Spearings) Morning journey leaves Axminster station at 0737 (will also set down at Honiton Rd Park & Ride) Afternoon journey leaves St Davids station at 1640 (will also pick up on request at Hele Rd & Honiton Rd - Miller & Carter) H1 from Honiton Railway Station (Station Forecourt) direct to Exeter College (op by Sewards) Morning journey leaves Honiton station at 0750 (will also set down at Honiton Rd Park & Ride) Afternoon journey leaves St Davids Station at 1640 (will also pick up on request at Hele Rd & Honiton Rd - Miller & Carter) B1 from Barnstaple Railway Station (Stop A - Bideford) direct to Exeter College (op by Streets) Morning journey leaves Barnstaple station at 0715 Afternoon journey leaves St Davids station at 1645 U1 from Teignmouth Station (Station forecourt) direct to Exeter College (op by Greenslades) Morning journey leaves Teignmouth station forecourt at 0740 (will also set down at Honiton Rd Park & Ride) Afternoon journey leaves St Davids station at 1640 (will also pick up on request at Hele Rd & Honiton Rd - Miller & Carter) D1 from Dawlish - Piermont Place (bus layby) direct to Exeter College (op by Greenslades) Morning journey leaves Dawlish Piermont Place, front of beach bar, at 0740 (will also set down at Honiton Rd Park & Ride) Afternoon journey leaves St Davids station at 1640 (will also pick up on request at Hele Rd & Honiton Rd - Miller & Carter) Pedestrian access BONHAY ROAD from College Bus Stop 1 Car Park Shops Bus Stop 2 Exeter St David’s Station.

  • Torquay Waterfront a Short Heritage Walk
    Company Tourism Riviera English of courtesy Image Torquay waterfront A short heritage walk Start at Torquay Railway Station. When the railway line was constructed it originally terminated at Torre Station (then called Torquay) which opened in December 1848. The line to Paignton opened eleven years later on 1 August 1859. The original station was described in some quarters as “a third rate station not worthy of the resort” and was rebuilt in 1878. Head for the sea front and, with the bay on your right, amble towards the harbour. On your left you’ll have a view of Torre Abbey, founded in 1196 and later home to the Cary family. The Spanish Barn was built in the early thirteenth century, but picked up its name after it was used to house prisoners from the Spanish Armada. One of the prisoners was the fiancée of one of the crew, who disguised herself as a sailor. Incarcerated with the other 396 prisoners, she died in the squalid conditions, and the ghost of The Spanish Lady supposedly roams the grounds to this day. You can also look out to sea and visualise some of the important maritime events that the people of Torquay would have seen from here at various points in the town’s long history. From Napoleon’s arrival in the bay in 1815 as a prisoner aboard HMS Bellerophon, to the presence in July 1910 of the Atlantic, Mediterranean and Home Fleets, which were in Torbay to be reviewed by King George V after the location was changed from Penzance due to bad weather.

  • English Riviera • Torquay, Paignton and Brixham
    Discover Photographers from top: John Lacey, Julia Amies-Green and Bob Small The Seafood CoastPhotographer: © English Heritage Discover The Seafood Coast Torbay and the English Riviera • Torquay, Paignton and Brixham Fresh fish, a funicular railway and Stone Age caves at Babbacombe MORNING Start your day in Torquay. From here you can either Babbacombe drive or hop on the No.22 bus for the two-mile journey (3.2km) to one of Britain’s highest clifftop promenades at Babbacombe. Soak up staggering sea views on the fairly strenuous 2.2 mile (3.5km) Babbacombe and Oddicombe Walk. Swap the steep descent from Lady Mount Temple for a ride on the historic funicular railway, and, from Oddicombe beach, gaze up to the mighty compressed layers of sandstone and limestone. Scour Babbacombe Beach for curled shell fossils, then climb the coast path through woodland, pausing for local ales and line-caught seafood at the Cary Arms. AFTERNOON If you want to wallow in the epitome of coastal chic, Kents Cavern linger at the Cary Arms for a soothing spa treatment and a sundowner by the sea. Otherwise, dig deeper into the wonders of this UNESCO Global Geopark at the enthralling Kents Cavern, just a 20 minute stroll (one mile / 1.6km) or a few minutes on the No.22 bus, from the starting point of your walk. In this labyrinth of Stone Age caves, you can discover evidence of ancient humans and clap eyes on 400-million-year-old stalagmites and stalactites. Backtrack to Babbacombe and finish the day with a hearty portion of award-winning fish and chips from Hanbury’s.

Next Meeting – AGM 28th April 2018 Great Western Franchise Consultation - Railfuture Response Lynton to Barnstaple narrow gauge plans Picture Gallery Campaigning for better services over a bigger rail network CHAIRMAN'S INTRODUCTION In November we had another successful branch meeting in Crediton. We once again welcomed OkeRAIL and heard about their hard work to secure a daily train service between Okehampton and Exeter. News that radio communication masts were to be installed was a promising sign. Then on 30th January 2018 the Secretary of State for Transport sent a letter to South West MPs to update them on rail in the South West. It included a statement saying that, ‘……we have instructed GWR to prepare plans to introduce regular train services to Okehampton, with the objective of securing a credible and costed plan for delivering an all-week, all-year round train service between Exeter and Okehampton as soon as reasonably practicable’. A similar statement is in Section 4.3 of the Department of Transport issued report, ‘South West Peninsula strategic rail blueprint: government response’. This also says, ‘We also expect GWR to play its full part in supporting the development of local proposals for other service enhancements such as between Exeter and Axminster/Honiton (Devon Metro), and in longer term proposals such as the potential scheme to reopen the railway between Plymouth and Tavistock’.
