Saturday 28th July seen a trip to Pembroke Dock, mainly to sample the branch between Whitland and Pembroke Dock, and also to take advantage of good value fares that Great Western Railway were offering in First Class; £12 single, each way between Bristol Parkway and Pembroke Dock and back to Bristol Parkway again. Altogether, the day was fabulous, the connections were great and also myself and Gavin were in good company for the day.
