Catamaran KINGSWEAR BELLE is seen arriving at Dartmouth Station Landing Stage on October 28, 2003 on the regular cross river ferry sailing from Kingswear Station. This vessel is almost exclusively used on the ferry crossing it has limited seating and a small open deck to the rear, little more than a balcony. Its high standee capacity come into its own during the summer months when making connection with the Kingswear - Paignton trains operated by the company.

As the commentary on the harbour cruise sailings are  fond of pointing out Dartmouth Station is the only railway station in Britain which has never had a rail connection!
