OK; I think I get this game now, having not played at all up to this point out of not really understanding how it works. Seen as I *think* I now do...

Bloxwich North?

I've just checked it and I think we are due a Parliamentary bonus for that.

Anyway, we'll go from Wolverhampton to Birmingham New Street.

This is a tricky one. No trains actually call here or at the next station, Barlaston, which are served by the X1 rail replacement bus service, run by BakerBus, so the next station to be actually served by a train service is Stone along this line.

Fully agreed Paul, and as such these two stations will not count.

Replacement buses (of any kind) do not count.

Doesn't matter :) I'm quite liking this game actually; I apologise to you all, especially Paul, for taking ages to take part...

To end quickly or draw it out? Either way, we're looking at a dead end. Let's go for the distant option: Kilpatrick.

Actually we had the option of going from Dalmuir to Glasgow Queen Street on a WHL inbound service... which I hadn't thought of...
Unfortunately we can't turn back once we hit Kilpatrick as everything in the other direction calls Dalmuir...

D'oh. My bad. Sorry :oops:

Are they fast from Dalmuir though? No calling at Anniesland if going to the high-level station?

EDIT: Nope. Oh well :roll:

You decide...
No, the WHL trains don't go through Anniesland; they're non-stop to Glasgow, apart from the sleeper which calls Westerton.
Otherwise it's Bowling.

We are now approaching Dumbarton Central. Change here for services to Helensburgh Central. Please mind the gap when alighting from this train.
