Saltash Rail Users Group

SRUG was founded in 2006 and exists to represent the views of passengers and potential rail users in Saltash.

We also aim to improve the awareness of and use of the train services in Saltash - with support from partners we publish a local timetable for Saltash and distribute it throughout the town and surrounding area.

The station now is served by 12 or 13 trains in each direction every weekday, and it is an increasingly popular and well used facility.

SRUG depends on the continuing support and help from the local community - to get involved please join and help in any way you can - most of all by USING THE TRAINS !

 
Open Meeting with FGW Environment & Sustainabilty Head PDF Print E-mail

SRUG is delighted that Andrew Griffiths, Head of Environment and Sustainability for First Great Western, will be coming to give the talk at our AGM on 17th December.

He will talk about FGW's approach to environmental issues and will be able to take questions. Do you know what the equivalent passenger miles per gallon of a High Speed Train or a Diesel Multiple Unit is - does using the train really reduce your carbon footprint? WHat is the environmental impact of keeping the lines clear of leaves and worse? How much paper is used printing timetables?

As well as a brief formal AGM the evening will finish with a screening of the short film "Last Train to Callington" which traces the route of the railway from Bere Alston to Callington terminus. The line closed in 1966, and there is fascinating footage from the last days of the line as well as earlier age of steam material.

Wednesday 17th December at 7:00pm in Saltash Guildhall, Fore Street, Saltash. All welcome.

 
Walk or Cycle to the Station PDF Print E-mail

Almost all of Saltash is within 20 minutes walk or 10 minutes cycle ride from the station - it may be hilly in parts but using the backways it is a pleasant trip and gets you some of your daily exercise as well.

New Timetable Leaflet PDF Print E-mail

The new timetable leaflet is now available - the front cover is Yellow and you should put any Blue ones out for recycling immediately as there are some significant changes.

The main peak hour trains remain the same, but we have gained some additional services in between. Also there are weekend changes at the end of the summer (7-15th September) so don't get caught out by those.

Of course we are still seeing significant 2 hrgaps during the day in both directions and we need to see a much better Sunday service.

The timetable leaflet can be picked up from the Station, the Guildhall, the Library or you can download a copy as a pdf file from here:

Printed copies are usually available at the station.

Its amazing how cheap it is with a Devon and Cornwall Railcard.
