RMweb Gold Captain Kernow Posted July 5, 2011 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 5, 2011 A pair of LMR-liveried Clas 153s have recently been leased to FGW, who are using them on local services in Devon and Cornwall. I suppose that over the years we have seen various liveries, but these were still a bit of a surprise when they came down. Here's one of them resting in Dock 4 at Plymouth station.
