    Celtic were 3-0 up from the first leg, scored first last night (21mins), so therefore Celtic were 4-0 ahead on aggregate. Celtic then managed to concede 4 goals between the 32nd minute and full time so 4 - 4, and then LESK scored a winner in the 109th minute ending the match as victors 5-4 on...

    Longest distance a road uses an abandoned railway alignment?

    Nowhere near your example on distance, but the Fareham - Gosport Bus only section of the E routes uses part of the long gone rail line between the two towns.

    Trivia - Do any operators serve places with the same or similar names?

    Stretching the thread just a bit, back in the day day, London Transport Route 37 (Peckham - Hounslow) served Herne Hill, near the Norwoods, West Norwood, Norwood Garage etc and Hounslow fairly near to Norwood Green

    Caledonian Sleeper

    I notice the Highlander left Euston at 23:47, I wonder if it waited for passengers for the 23:45 Lowlander which started from Watford Junction at 02:54. Glasgow passengers maybe then moved on from Edinburgh on a day service. I believe the Southbound 1M16 is brought back from Preston by the...

    Longest journey in the UK to run with stock that lacks toilet facilities

    I imagine most passengers presume ther will be a loo on a train, as we know most trains do have them, but to find out there isn't becomes a challenge especially with children in tow, or for pregnant ladies etc.

    Flixbus Discussion

    I think that sometimes if its an optional section of the journey, then drivers might use it as an oppprtunity to do the equivalent of route learning. I have in the past, it helps if your on say a daytime journey and the M6 is closed, divert via the route you've taught yourself. Looks...

    My daughter travelled back home on Monday, Thetford to Nottingham, she was telling Mrs Mike last night that twice the driver apologised between Ely and Peterborough, for a 'bouncy' ride, (sounds a bit nice than rough ride), and there wasn't anything to worry about, she thought that was good to...

    Why is TfL's web site rubbish

    I don't disagree with what you've written. In the opening post the OP asked for the journey time between the two stations, hopefully he can make his choices now. 1786723874 See my reply to Craig 1122, I didn't know to put it into one message but this I hope will be Mercedes. 1786723899 Merged

    Why is TfL's web site rubbish

    For the OP, I've looked on the TfL, WTT (Working Time Tables) infomation and the Bakerloo line seems to be around 9½-10½ minutes and the Jubilee is around 9-9½ minutes, a negligible difference. Hope this helps you decide, apologies if this is quoted elsewhere, I looked but couldn't see anything.
