[DanTrain]

Not sure the Brigg line guy would agree with you there, a week's a very long time to wait! No matter, I think Gainsborough Central is a win

 

[DanTrain]

If it is, let's restart from Larbert

 

[A Challenge]

Bonus points are added to the tally for a 'long wait' if there are less than three trains a day that make your journey (2 points), or if a move is deemed to made by a 'parliamentary' service (5 points).

Do we deem it to be parliamentary?

[DanTrain]

Less than 3 trains a day on average, but I'll leave it to you to decide that one. Falkirk Grahamston

[DanTrain]

Warrington Bank Quay (down sleeper again). You're right, I'll take the wait, thanks for pointing that out!

 

[A Challenge]

That is an unadvertised stop on the down sleeper (see also https://www.sleeper.scot/timetables/london-inverness) so it doesn't count, like Carlisle. I also can't find any other services that skip Wigan North Western from VTWC.

So it is, let's go to Leyland then
