Crumpet Stuffing Withdrawal

Usage on many routes had declined by the early 1990s. In 1989 the London to Stirling service was discontinued.[8] The services operated at a significant loss and the service ceased in 1995 when British Rail was privatised.[9]

First Great Western relaunched a service from London Paddington to Penzance as part of its Night Riviera overnight sleeper service in September 1999, with eight converted General Utility Vans but withdrew it at the end of summer 2005.[10][11
