  • コーニッシュ・リヴィエラ・エクスプレス(英語: Cornish Riviera Express)は、1904年からロンドンとコーンウォールのペンザンスを結んでいるイギリスの急行旅客列車である。グレート・ウェスタン鉄道が最初に運転を開始し、ロンドンのパディントン駅を午前遅くに出てペンザンス駅まで運行する列車にこの名前が付けられ、その後国有化されてイギリス国鉄となり、民営化されてファースト・グレート・ウェスタンとなっても、2回の世界大戦中に一時的に運転を中止したのみで、運転が続けられている。またペンザンスからロンドンまで午前遅くに出発して走る急行列車にも同じ名前が付けられている。その性能と宣伝により、コーニッシュ・リヴィエラ・エクスプレスはイギリスでもとても有名な列車となっており、その象徴的な地位に押し上げることになった1930年代におけるグレート・ウェスタン鉄道の宣伝でとくに名高い。 (ja)
