I am in the process of writing a new historical mystery/thriller set in the late 19th century. My amateur sleuth/hero resides in London, but is called to investigate a case down in Cornwall, specifically the town of Tintagel, aka as Trevena before the Postal Service changed its name. I know that the Great Western Railway service went down to Cornwall because of the tin mines, but I was wondering what specific branch went to Tintagel, and how would my detective reach his destination. What railway station in London would he have to depart from? Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated, as I want my story to be historically correct! Thanks!
