As this is a terminal station we can either exit the station and hop to Aylesbury town centre or hop on the return train. We opt for the latter and board the 1213 Chiltern Railways service 2C40 to Amersham, arriving there at 1238 on Thursday afternoon.

Was just about to make a move from Liverpool Street but realised it is just over the permitted 0.5 mile boundary. Fenchurch Street is also nearby but doesn't offer as much so instead we board the 1407 London Central service 40 to Dulwich Library, arriving there at 1505 on Tuesday afternoon.
