The DfT regard the summer service in the west as a bit of a nuisance. I had to answer a load of idiotic questions during the DA process which indicated some there really didn't want to pay for the existing additional summer trains, let alone anything else.
As to the 802 units, they had to be identical inside to the 800 units for the DfT to approve them. I would have hoped that GWR would have roaded the surfboards to Newquay from stations from Bristol (for a small fee) but banning them became the easier option.
