:01:08. > :01:11.the South West Trains route are set to invest ?1.2 billion
:01:12. > :01:15.across the network. The Waterloo journey currently takes
:01:16. > :01:19.just over three and a quarter hours. It's slower than the more popular
:01:20. > :01:23.Exeter to Paddington route, because most of the line is single
:01:24. > :01:25.track and high-speed but in future it could be up
:01:26. > :01:31.to 15 minutes quicker. That news has been applauded
:01:32. > :01:34.by passengers, but some rail campaigners say there's no real
:01:35. > :01:37.new investment for the region and rail users west of Exeter
:01:38. > :01:41.will feel no benefit at all. We'll have reaction
:01:42. > :01:43.from Cornwall in a moment, The Waterloo line is
:01:44. > :01:50.picturesque but slow. The news of this investment,

:01:54. > :01:55.from the south-west to London by up to 15 minutes,
:01:56. > :02:01.has been welcomed by passengers. It would mean we could get up

:02:32. > :02:33.a direct train between Exeter and London that is a lot faster
:02:34. > :02:37.would be useful for people. Importantly, the Waterloo line

:02:48. > :02:52.at Dawlish where the line has repeatedly been cut by storms
:02:53. > :02:58.or further in to Devon and Cornwall. We need to have a second reliable,
:02:59. > :03:04.resilient rail network here in the south-west and whilst
:03:05. > :03:07.this is definitely a positive move, it is not something we should
:03:08. > :03:09.be taking focus of. We need to continue with the efforts

:03:44. > :03:52.be good news for passengers in Devon and the east of the region,
:03:53. > :03:55.but there's little if any benefit for those travelling

:04:35. > :04:39.funds to do this part I suppose if that part becomes very
:04:40. > :04:45.fast, I would probably go to Exeter It is much more economical
:04:46. > :04:52.and better for me to go The problem with rail travel
:04:53. > :04:56.in Cornwall is how long it It is about 180 miles
:04:57. > :05:02.from London Paddington to Exeter. The fastest train does
:05:03. > :05:04.it in just two hours, that's an average speed of 90 mph,
:05:05. > :05:08.but then from Exeter to Penzance it's 120 miles
:05:09. > :05:14.and that takes three hours, so the average speed
:05:15. > :05:18.has more than halved. What we need to do is get
:05:19. > :05:21.a time in the morning where a train goes from Truro,
:05:22. > :05:24.St Austell, Exeter and on to London, that will stop all those stops,
:05:25. > :05:28.so a real commuter line if you like, for business people travelling

:05:35. > :05:39.money from the franchise operators. The Transport Minister,
:05:40. > :05:42.Paul Maynard, says this announcement is about the South Western trains
:05:43. > :05:45.franchise and rail passengers in Cornwall will see improvements
:05:46. > :05:49.to rolling stock by the end Well, Andrew Roden is a rail expert
:05:50. > :06:07.and author and is live I have been taking a look through
:06:08. > :06:12.the announcement. There is a lot of talk of improvements east but what
:06:13. > :06:17.sort of impact will this have on passages in our bit of the
:06:18. > :06:23.Southwest? I guess passengers from Poole and Weymouth will not object
:06:24. > :06:28.to faster journeys to London, but on the west, it looks like it is
:06:29. > :06:34.refurbished rolling stock, free Wi-Fi, it does look thin. What about
:06:35. > :06:38.this issue of first group now being involved in the mainline franchise
:06:39. > :06:45.and the South West trains franchise? What are the implications from that?
:06:46. > :06:49.It is not clear. It may be the competition in markets authority
:06:50. > :06:52.takes an interest but the key competition is not between Great
:06:53. > :06:57.Western Railway and South West trains, it is much more about
:06:58. > :07:04.competition between railways the car and there. There has been talk of
:07:05. > :07:09.?1.2 billion of investment today. How much of that do you think we are
:07:10. > :07:17.likely to see in the bit from Exeter up? I suspect very little. The
:07:18. > :07:21.reality is the vast majority of passengers travel into London from
:07:22. > :07:25.much closer, so that is where you spend the money, but the Southwest
:07:26. > :07:30.receives little transport money, joint lowest in England and the
:07:31. > :07:36.question must be asked, when are we going to get our fair share? If this
:07:37. > :07:41.is the statement, we may have some problems in the Southwest in years
:07:42. > :07:45.to come. You are in Cornwall tonight and we have had the concerns from
:07:46. > :07:50.passages that they do not benefit from this. When can passengers in
:07:51. > :07:53.Cornwall expect to see the much promised faster journey time is up
:07:54. > :07:59.from Penzance to the capital on the mainline? I guess it may be the case
:08:00. > :08:04.that when the new hybrid diesel electric trains coming from next
:08:05. > :08:12.year we might see some journey times then, but the reality is unless you
:08:13. > :08:15.want to spend billions, shortening journey times between Cornwall and
:08:16. > :08:22.London will cost a fortune and the money is not there. In the real
:08:23. > :08:25.world, journey times for state, four, five hours from London to
:08:26. > :08:28.Penzance with little improvement is any time soon. Thank you very much

:21:37. > :21:41.go off and visit schools. That includes talks this week at Exeter
:21:42. > :21:43.and Plymouth universities. From the South Pacific to the seas of the
:21:44. > :21:45.Southwest. Now, do you know the difference
:21:46. > :21:47.between your paperwhites, Well, they're all different types
:21:48. > :21:54.of daffodils and a group of volunteers in the Tamar Valley
:21:55. > :21:56.have been taught how It's all part of the Heralds
:21:57. > :22:00.of Spring project and as Heidi Davey's been finding
:22:01. > :22:03.out, the group have been using their new skills to record
:22:04. > :22:06.the different varieties. There are thousands of different
:22:07. > :22:08.types of daffodils, but trying to find out what thrives where,
:22:09. > :22:12.that is the tricky bit. Thanks to funding from
:22:13. > :22:15.the Heritage Lottery, a survey is now underway
:22:16. > :22:18.in the Tamar Valley to look People don't necessarily need
:22:19. > :22:25.to know what they are. As long as we can photograph them
:22:26. > :22:30.and we can get the measurements and the total colours
:22:31. > :22:33.and everything, then we can go to a local expert who has more
:22:34. > :22:38.of an idea of what they all are. We were saying earlier that these
:22:39. > :22:40.could date back 30-odd years, We have one local landowner
:22:41. > :22:45.who thinks there are over 60 varieties on his land and,
:22:46. > :22:50.of course, they were grubbed up And for the volunteers,
:22:51. > :22:56.it has been back to the classroom to learn how they can help preserve
:22:57. > :22:58.this area of outstanding I wanted to find out more
:22:59. > :23:04.about them and particularly We are trying to find older ones,
:23:05. > :23:10.so bit by bit, we're learning which are the modern-looking ones,
:23:11. > :23:15.which are the older-looking ones. That particularly has
:23:16. > :23:26.a lovely long trumpet. And the petals as well,
:23:27. > :23:30.the way they are starred. It is those beautiful
:23:31. > :23:33.characteristics that make daffodils just so popular over the centuries,
:23:34. > :23:36.summed up best, of course, "I wandered lonely as a cloud, that
:23:37. > :23:46.floats on high over vales and hills, "when all at once I saw a crowd,
:23:47. > :24:05.a host of golden daffodils." Gorgeous! Beautiful! A real sign of
:24:06. > :24:09.spring. Because it does feel like spring, we thought we would elevate
:24:10. > :24:15.David to the roof of the studios. Good evening. You are not seeing me
:24:16. > :24:22.right now because we thought we would show you the view out towards
:24:23. > :24:26.Plymouth. It is a bit bracing up here, there is a cold wind from the
:24:27. > :24:32.East but the sunshine has been glorious today and we have had
:24:33. > :24:38.temperatures of 16, 17 degrees. This is from one side of Plymouth Sound.
:24:39. > :24:43.This is from the other leg and we have had some lovely sunshine today.
:24:44. > :24:48.That sunshine is pretty hazy, there has been quite thick haze right
:24:49. > :24:52.across the Southwest and there is a fair amount of medium and high level
:24:53. > :24:58.cloud coming into night but for many of us, a lovely end to the day. The
:24:59. > :25:03.forecast for the next couple of days is to see a bit of a change. These
:25:04. > :25:09.were the scenes from earlier today, down in Cornwall where we had some
:25:10. > :25:15.Boreas sunshine. Some lovely sunshine across other parts of
:25:16. > :25:20.Cornwall, into Devon. The sunshine continues to be pretty good for the
:25:21. > :25:23.last hour before the sun sets, but overnight tonight we will see more
:25:24. > :25:30.cloud coming up from the south and the sunshine is bringing out the
:25:31. > :25:34.flowers. This week it is unsettled. There will be some showers dotted
:25:35. > :25:40.around and towards the end of the week, it will turn colder. The veil
:25:41. > :25:45.of cloud that is approaching from the West, it is a long way off and
:25:46. > :25:50.it will get closer through the night to come, introducing more cloud. A
:25:51. > :25:54.week weather front will drift past us, a few showers associated with
:25:55. > :26:00.that, right conditions in the afternoon tomorrow but by Wednesday
:26:01. > :26:05.and Thursday, more unsettled conditions. Winds from the Southwest
:26:06. > :26:09.and the chance of outbreaks of rain. Until the cold front goes through on
:26:10. > :26:16.Friday, some warmth still with us as well. You can see most of us have
:26:17. > :26:19.been unbroken sunshine today and that continues this evening and
:26:20. > :26:24.through the night to come, until the end of the night when more cloud
:26:25. > :26:30.will arrive in the West and that might be capable of producing a few
:26:31. > :26:34.showers. Overnight temperatures of five or 6 degrees across parts of
:26:35. > :26:41.Somerset and Dorset, most of us holding up at 7 degrees. A few
:26:42. > :26:48.showers in the morning but brighter tomorrow afternoon. Temperatures up
:26:49. > :26:53.to 15, 16 degrees. For the Isles of Scilly, there is thick cloud capable
:26:54. > :26:58.of producing a few spots of rain especially during the latter part of
:26:59. > :27:06.the day. There are our times of high water. Those times are in British
:27:07. > :27:12.summer Time and for our surface, the north coast will be rather choppy.
:27:13. > :27:15.We are seeing some choppy sea conditions developing and the winds
:27:16. > :27:20.increase and they could be well backed up to a force five or six.
:27:21. > :27:26.Some warmth still until we get to the end of the week when we start to
:27:27. > :27:31.see a few showers, especially on Friday and into Saturday. From the
:27:32. > :27:38.roof here, back to that one studio. Thank you, David. It looks very nice
:27:39. > :27:42.there. Nice to end the programme with lighter evenings. From all of
:27:43. > :27:44.us here, good night.
