The Cornishman (train)

Down Cornishman at Truro in 1958

The Cornishman is a British express passenger train to Penzance in Cornwall. From its inception in the 19th century until before World War II it originated at London Paddington. Under British Railways the name was applied to a different service, starting variously from Wolverhampton, Leeds or Bradford. In 2006, First Great Western, now Great Western Railway, reintroduced the named service which now runs once per day from Monday to Saturday in both directions.
