OBSERVATION

I cannot stress it too highly that if a route on a journey preamble as printed, it MUST be adhered to, even if contestants decide they have a different view of matters. I am quite concerned about matters.

In this case, the journey preamble stated that after leaving the Ledbury and Gloucester Railway, we would then take the Cheltenham and Great Western Union Railway then following that we would take the Midland and South Western Junction Railway. After Barbers Bridge on the Ledbury and Gloucester Railway, we would have passed through the open station of Gloucester, then the closed station of Churchdown on the Cheltenham and Great Western Union Railway. From there we would have taken the line connection at the open station of Cheltenham Spa onto the Midland and South Western Junction Railway, where the first closed station to be met was that of Cheltenham South and Leckhampton. We then would have passed a large number of closed stations on that line, halfway along passing through the open station of Swindon, then more closed stations on that line until we met the next line on the journey preamble, the Andover and Redbridge Railway.

IN THIS INSTANCE, I HAVE MADE MY MASTER OF THIS JOURNEY AGREE WITH WHAT HAS BEEN POSTED AS I DID NOT WANT TO RECALL ALL THE NUMEROUS POSTINGS THAT HAD ALREADY BEEN MADE IN ORDER THAT THE QUIZ CAN CONTINUE AT THE CLOSED STATION OF RUSHEY PLATT, BEING THE NEXT CLOSED STATION AFTER THE OPEN STATION OF SWINDON.

Didn't realise we were going the wrong way, at least we've ended up in the correct place
