hock:

I'm not sure which is worse, the shock of a leg lasting only 2 points or the inevitable "systematic" starting station which clagmonster is about to give us...

 

[clagmonster]

Are we allowed to use the NYMR steam services to Grosmont (on Network Rail tracks but not National Rail services), or have I just won?

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

I thought these "quickies" were frowned upon ... :roll:

You have just won, in the most boring way possible.

They are - but alas, there isn't a rule that forced him to not choose the dead end.

I made a similar mistake when I chose Duirinish as the starting point when I should have gone for Plockton...

 

[clagmonster]

Ive just checked, it seems the NYMR Whitby services are summer only so we will start, predictably, at Adlington (Cheshire).

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

I'm not taking any action on this, for this clear reason.

At the end of the day, if someone says Abererch then Pwlheli, they're only going to get 2 points, which in the points tables doesn't count as very much.

Surely if you want more points you're going to go the way where you can get more of them in one leg!

Through line stations, even if they are the last before a terminus, are valid.

This was the adjudication last time that this happened.

They wouldn't be valid anyway; they're not National Rail.

The moral of the story - choose the 3rd last station as your starting point, not the 2nd!
