It does stop at Llantwit Major so it is a valid move.

It's an amended timetable. The mainline between Cardiff and Bridgend was closed for works yesterday so services were diverted via the Vale of Glamorgan Line with additional calls at Barry, Rhoose and Llantwit Major. If it says VAR (variation), then it's not a regular service.

Oh ok

We then board the 20:05 West Midlands Trains service 1V30 to Worcester Foregate Street, arriving at 21:01 on Sunday

Realised the previous train stopped there so we next we board the 19:38 Cross Country service 1M95 to Nottingham, arriving there 20:54 on Sunday

 

[ValleyLines142]

We could have gone back to Worcester if you'd have wished, although it's nice for a bit of variety in destinations and not to double back. We just can't go on the same service we've alighted off.

We exit the station to the bus stops outside, where we board the 2108 Nottingham City Transport Green Line service 6 to Edwalton (Turning Circle), arriving there at 2124 on Sunday evening.

Additional Notes

• So the game remains realistic, you should use the current timetable for the relevant day not including timetable variations for engineering works.

I think that the extract above from the very first posting on this thread that was made by a forum quizmaster, which makes matters clear in its definition of timetable variations.
