We take advantage of the overnight travel relaxation rule and next board the 0555 Northern Trains service to Blackrod that arrives there at 0642 on Saturday.
There's an earlier service from Blackpool at 0522 arriving at Blackrod at 0610 so we may as well use that.
Leaving Blackrod station to the bus stop outside, we next board the 0632 Go North West Bee Network service 575 to Wigan (Bus Station), arriving there at 0701 on Saturday.
We exit the station to the Central Station stop on Union Street and get the 1144 First Glasgow service 267 to Hamilton (Bus Station), arriving at 1255 Saturday afternoon.
Having thoroughly enjoyed our travels across Glasgow, we move onto pastures new. We take the eleven minute/0.5 mile walk to Shettleston station and board the 0003 ScotRail service 2H20 to Bathgate, arriving there at 0041 on Sunday.
We decide to have a Sunday morning stopping train treat and next board the 0902 ScotRail service to Helensburgh Central that arrives there at 1016 on Sunday,
We exit the station and walk to Dunblane Police Station and get the 13:54 Ember service E3 to Dundee Railway Station, arriving at 15:04 Sunday afternoon.
Sadly, we have just missed the southbound LNER to Kings Cross, so we remain in Scotland for the time being. We instead board the 1515 ScotRail service 2L58 to Edinburgh Gateway, arriving there at 1628 on Sunday.
