There is a train leaving London Paddington on Saturday morning at 7:30 which arrives in Penzance at 13.20, which is a bit tight for the rapid tournament, but the station is quite close to the venue. Please let us know if you are coming on this train and we will delay the start for you and pick you up from the station if possible. Trains leaving Penzance on Sunday evening arrive in Paddington rather late, though there are sleepers available.
