I'm glad you were all able to come to a decision regarding the hiccup yesterday, whilst I did receive a PM alerting me to the matter.

TP

It did take quite a number of postings, though, before the quiz eventually moved along.

Continuing our travels through the night across the capital, we then board the 0200 Metroline service N16 to Edgware (Bus Station), arriving there at 0247 in the early hours of Tuesday morning.

At 02:25 we board the N5 Metrolink bus service to Trafalgar Square, arriving there at 03:46 on Tuesday morning.

At 02:25 we board the N5 Metrolink bus service to Trafalgar Square, arriving there at 03:16 on Tuesday morning.

Can you clarify your post please, the previous move arrived in Edgware at 0247. Do you mean the 0255 service N5 that arrives at Trafalgar Square at 0346?

Yes, sorry. The N5 PDF timetable only gives the services as operating at 15-minute intervals, so I must have accidentally dropped half an hour on the timings.

Anyway, we're at Trafalgar Square. We can go practically anywhere in London.

 

[James Wake]

We next board the 0357 Abellio London service N3 to Beckenham, War Memorial arriving at 0442 on Tuesday morning.

 

[Quakkerillo]

Yes, sorry. The N5 PDF timetable only gives the services as operating at 15-minute intervals, so I must have accidentally dropped half an hour on the arrival time.

You still have to add 30 minutes to the departure time as well

We notice we missed "Clock House" station stop, so we decide to walk back.
Luckily it's exactly half a mile (says Google), so we can do so easily.
There's enough time to board SEN 2K02 at 05:26, which we use to get to London Waterloo East at 05:52 on Tuesday Morning

 

[James Wake]

Crossing over to London Waterloo, we next board the 0612 South West Trains service to Fulwell, arriving at 0649 on Tuesday morning.

 

[ValleyLines142]

Taking the short walk across to the bus garage, we then board the 0659 London United service 33 to Barnes (Red Lion), arriving there at 0744 on Tuesday morning.

 

[backontrack]

We walk to Barnes Bridge rail station and board the 08:01 SOUTH WEST TRAINS service to London Waterloo, arriving there at 08:27 on Tuesday morning.

 

[ValleyLines142]

We then leave the capital and board the 0900 South West Trains service 1P21 to Portsmouth & Southsea, arriving there at 1027 on Tuesday morning.

 

[backontrack]

We catch the 11:27 Great Western service to Bath Spa, arriving there at 13:36 on Tuesday afternoon. We would have caught an earlier train, but it arrived in Portsmouth and Southsea the same time as the one we took from Waterloo.

If this is not accepted, I have another move:

We catch the 11:27 Great Western service to Westbury, arriving there at 13:09 on Tuesday afternoon. We would have caught an earlier train, but it arrived in Portsmouth and Southsea the same time as the one we took from Waterloo.

 

[ValleyLines142]

What are we doing with the current Bath engineering works?

 

[backontrack]

I'll edit this post, then.

 

[ValleyLines142]

Fair enough. I shall continue in that case. We exit Bath Spa station and head to the bus station, where we make use of a brand new bus service that only started operation on Sunday. We board the 1345 First in Bristol, Bath and the West service 174 to Radstock (Victoria Hall), arriving there at 1414 on Tuesday afternoon.

 

[backontrack]

I'm sorry to complicate matters, but I have edited my previous post. Seeing as we have moved on, I am inclined to revert my post back to Bath and to carry on from here (Radstock).

Just out of interest, have we ever travelled by Rail Replacement Bus Service on this quiz?

I personally would have just left it at Bath and not bothered with the Westbury post, as I had already made a move to Radstock afterwards.

No, we have just taken into account the normal working timetable.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

We board the 1345 First in Bristol, Bath and the West service 174 to Radstock (Victoria Hall), arriving there at 1414 on Tuesday afternoon.

We continue our area tour by next boarding the 1444 First in Bristol, Bath and the West service 173 to East Horrington (Slab House Inn) that arrives there at 1518 on Tuesday afternoon.

 

[ValleyLines142]

We then board the 1603 First in Bristol, Bath and the West service 173 to Odd Down (Midford Road), arriving there at 1702 on Tuesday afternoon.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

A change of operator sees us board the 1732 Somerbus service 175 to Clutton (Rogers Close) that arrives there at 1817 on Tuesday afternoon.

 

[ValleyLines142]

Heading onto a route that will see brand new Wright Streetdecks appearing on it next month, we then board the 1840 First Bristol service 376 to Knowle (Greenmore Road), arriving there at 1903 on Tuesday evening.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

We next board the 1915 First in Bristol, Bath and the West service 2 to Brentry (Marlwood Drive) that arrives there at 2004 on Tuesday evening.

 

[ValleyLines142]

Heading across to the bus stop opposite the very busy Brentry Roundabout in Henbury, we then board the 2038 First Bristol service 4 (previously the 40 up until as recent as Sunday) to Sea Mills (Cedar Park), arriving there at 2101 on Tuesday evening.

 

[johnnychips]

We have enough time to walk to the nearby Sea Mills station to take the 2146 FGW train to Bristol Temple Meads arriving 2207 on Tuesday evening. Apologies, can't seem to bold anything.

This is a mistake, as it is too far to walk.

 

[DasLunatic]

It's then a trip down south onboard the 2223 SWT service to Salisbury, arriving at 2335 on Tuesday evening.

 

[Springs Branch]

We call it a night until the first train of the morning, the 0515 SWT departure, from which we alight at Clapham Junction at 0638 Wednesday morning.

 

[Quakkerillo]

We then board the 06:53 southern service to Ore.
We alight at Hastings at 08:55 on Wednesday morning

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Walking to the bus stop outside the station, we next board the 0902 Stagecoach in Hastings Hastings Arrows service 22A to Hollington (Willingdon Avenue) that arrives there at 0925 on Wednesday morning.

 

[ValleyLines142]

We have enough time to walk to the nearby Sea Mills station to take the 2146 FGW train to Bristol Temple Meads arriving 2207 on Tuesday evening. Apologies, can't seem to bold anything.

Hold

Google Maps shows that the quickest route walking from the eastbound bus stop at Cedar Park, where we alighted off the 4, to Sea Mills station is 0.8 miles. This is too far for us to walk.

Oops, sorry I must have misread the scale on the map I used. Not sure what happens now.

 

[Quakkerillo]

There have been 4 subsequent moves, which would all need to be deleted. Furthermore, this is not a scoring game, and not that vitally important. A mistake was made apparently, not intentional.

Could we just forgive him for now, look away for a moment, and continue where we ended, were the move valid? I think that's just the easiest, and it's not that hugely important for a mistake like that. (If needed, give a small slap on the wrist )
