    Can anyone on the group let me know the identities/order of the coaches being used on this year's Cambrian please?

    Many thanks

    Never mind. Found out myself today as a first class passenger.
    It would have been nice to know that there was no real first class on this train, just a revamped TSO.

    The seat-table spacing was so impractical, my partner had a job fitting in...., the leg room was minimal, and the table was so tight that if an evacuation was ordered, the window passengers would have been in trouble.

    IF you are thinking of travelling, the standard second class coaches are far more comfortable.

    Just for the record, from Machynylleth:

    44871 (Kettle of Black Five variety)
    35508 (Support coach)
    5229 (False first)
    5278
    5478
    6528 (Micro buffet)
    9391
    5487
    5453

    For some consolation, the micro buffet had Purple Moose real ale available!
