We're Not Under Water!

After the mass media coverage of winter storms, causing flooding throughout the south west region from sea tidal surges & burst river banks, it probably appears to the rest of the country that the Westcountry is inaccessible. This is not the case, and Scilly is very much open for business.
The damage to the rail line at Dawlish only caused the journey from London to Penzance to be about 60 minutes longer than normal, but the train tracks are due to be fully open again from 4th April. This is 2 weeks ahead of schedule! Excellent news! Spread the word!!
