Time to collect our thoughts for the day, as there is naught else left to do at this time, but we do note that there is a very early bus running from the bus station that visits many settlements, so eventually, we board the 0455 Stagecoach Bluebird service 35 to Macduff (Barnhill Road) that arrives there at 0654 on Wednesday morning.

Didn't know the mornings were so short in Macduff Paul :lol: 0654 on Wednesday evening

Heading to possibly the largest settlement we've visited over the last few weeks, we then board the 0714 Stagecoach Bluebird service 35A to Aberdeen (Union Square Bus Station), arriving there at 0910 on Wednesday morning.

A brisk walk up to the mainline station and we board the first available service...

...2F30 0938 to Colchester Town arriving 1049 on Thursday morning

Liverpool Street has a minimum connection time of 15 minutes. Therefore, I believe the first service we could get would be any train departing at 0946 or after.

Bodie has subsequently edited the invalid connection to Colchester in #6317, making a valid move to Chingford. This was followed by #6319 (James Wake's bus to South Woodford)
The query has been addressed and we now have a valid journey thread, so ....


We enter South Woodford station and take the 1048 Central Line train to White City arriving 1133 Thursday morning.
