Ride the Legend – Exeter St Davids → Dawlish on a GWR Class 150 (26 January 2025) Step aboard a piece of living history and let the rails carry you through a journey that’s been thrilling travelers for more than 150 years. On 26 January 2025 the sleek, reliable GWR Class 150 diesel‑multiple‑unit will whisk you from the historic heart of Exeter St Davids straight to the iconic seaside town of Dawlish – a route that has become the poster child of British coastal rail travel. A Route Steeped in Heritage The line you’ll travel on is a jewel of the Great Western Railway legacy. Opened in 1846 as part of the original South Devon Railway, it was engineered by the visionary Isambard Kingdom Brunel to conquer the wild cliffs and sweeping seas of Devon. The spectacular Dawlish sea‑wall, a marvel of 19th‑century engineering, runs alongside the track, hugging the Atlantic and offering passengers an unforgettable “train‑on‑the‑beach” experience that has been immortalised in postcards, films and countless rail‑fan memories. Through two world wars, the line remained a lifeline for troops, supplies and holiday‑makers alike, proving its resilience against the elements and time. In the 1960s the iconic British Rail Class 150 units were introduced, replacing older steam‑hushed carriages with modern, air‑conditioned comfort while preserving the soul of the route. Today, that very same class‑150 family continues to serve the line, blending heritage with today’s expectations for speed, reliability and accessibility. Why the GWR Class 150 is the Perfect Companion Comfort Meets Classic Charm – Spacious interiors, large panoramic windows, and a smooth ride let you soak in the dramatic coastline without the jostle of older stock. Eco‑Smart Travel – Modern diesel technology paired with efficient fuel management means you’re travelling greener than a car journey, while still preserving the historic character of the line. Reliable Service – GWR’s rigorous maintenance schedule ensures the Class 150 runs on time, every time – crucial when you’re planning a magical winter escape to Dawlish. Accessibility for All – Low‑floor entry, dedicated spaces for wheelchairs, and tactile surfaces make the journey inclusive, honoring Brunel’s original vision of a railway for the people. What Awaits You at Dawlish When the train rolls into Dawlish, you’ll step out onto a town that feels like a seaside postcard come to life. The iconic black‑and‑white striped pier, the salty breezes, and the ever‑present roar of waves against the sea‑wall create a sensory symphony that’s impossible to replicate elsewhere.
