Longer platforms would be welcome. Saying that, any serious investment on the Westcountry mainline would be welcome. For a start, make the track between Liskeard and Bodmin double instead of single, and some LED displays for train stations that the rest of the Country has had for years (and some places now have on bus stops too) would be nice.
