caption_attribution_description: English: 153361 at St Keyne Wishing Well Halt in Cornwall, United Kingdom, with a train from Looe to Liskeard. As this is a "request stop" and no one has signalled to get on or off, the train just passes through without stopping.
context_page_description: The Looe Valley Line is an 8 ³⁄₄ miles community railway from Liskeard to Looe in Cornwall, United Kingdom, that follows the valley of the East Looe River for much of its course. It is operated by Great Western Railway.
context_section_description: The service operated by Great Western Railway since 10 December 2006 consisted of nine trains each way daily.  During the peak summer period from 20 May to 9 September 2007 three additional services were operated, including a late evening train.  In May 2019 Great Western Railway introduced an improved timetable which saw 15 trains a day run on the line Monday to Saturday and 8 on Sundays from April until October. 
  Coombe Junction Halt railway station is served by only two trains each way Mondays to Saturdays. The remaining intermediate stations are request stops – this means that passengers alighting must tell the guard that they wish to do so, and those waiting to join must signal clearly to the driver as the train approaches.
  The trains are formed of two-car Class 150s. 150233 was once named Lady Margret of Looe Valley (the original Lady Margret was a steam locomotive belonging to the Liskeard and Looe Railway). Single-car Class 153 153369 was named The Looe Valley Explorer. Both these trains carried large pictures on the outside showing local scenes, but interworked with other similar trains throughout the Great Western Railway network so did not work the line every day. Both these trains have since lost their special liveries and have been repainted in a standard liveries.
