Southern Portsmouth Harbour - Brighton via Littlehampton? The odd one is every station...

Portsmouth Harbour
<snip the detail>
BRIGHTON

How many trains do that? :)
On Sundays mornings only there are two trains from Brighton to Portsmouth Harbour that stop at all stations including Littlehampton.
No trains on other days do that.

Interestingly (or maybe not), no trains in the other direction call at Littlehampton.

Does the 06:30 Leamington Spa to Great Malvern still run? That had something like 29 stops, which is insane considering as the crow flies, it's only around 45 miles.

They've shortened it to Worcester now and I used to get on it at Leamington and feel really sorry for the conductor having to name all the stops.

Another bad one is the 0615 Worcester Shrub Hill to Stratford which has 31 stops (4 of them request) and takes 2h 06min to complete. The distance if driving is only only around 25 mile as well!
