I'm presuming that this is just Benfleet railway station, as at present there is no station in South Benfleet.

If so, we then board 2B73, the 2327 c2c service to West Ham, arriving there at 0003 in the early hours of Saturday morning


Ignore above post....lucky we were on the same service haha!

I was actually going to go to Fenchurch Street also, but I know there aren't that many connections from there :lol

We then make our way to Tower Hill tube station and board the 0022 Circle Line service to Paddington, arriving there at 0045 in the early hours of Saturday morning.

In this instance we ignore rail replacement buses and work on the normal timetable. So on a normal day when trains are running what time would this service arrive in Bicester Town?

I have no idea so flag that move.

Instead we take the 07:23 FGW service to Great Malvern arriving at 09:01 on Saturday morning.

Sorry to uphold my reputation as "wet blanket in chief" on this quiz, I have to say that since the train arrived at Hereford at 1019, you were far too too late unfortunately to board a bus that departs from outside Hereford station at 0941.

Although I have to say I'm not about on the forums as much as one would like to be, I'd like to thank everyone, once again, for keeping this game going so smoothly after the work we put into it in order to get it relaunched :smile:
