May @andyallen4014 please tell me why you crossed out that move?

I didn’t consider 1 hour 6 min wait to be appropriate when there were other moves available, I’d misread the arrival time of the previous post.

 

[318266]

OK. May play resume from THIS post please, as I treated the Colne post, at first, as invalid?

We take the 21:57 Northern 2N77 service to Colne arriving there at 2307 on Tuesday.

So from Colne, on the basis that we can board the train on the return working, we board the 2311 Northern service 2N88 to Preston, arriving there at 0010 in the early hours of Wednesday morning.

* Edit: Service invalid due to infringement of minimum connection time.*

 

[318266]

No you can't. 4mins in 5mins connection time.

 

[ValleyLines142]

No you can't. 4mins in 5mins connection time.

We've arrived on the same train though, so it would be impossible to miss. It's also the last service of the day?

 

[318266]

There's no mention of a way to get round the connection time rule.

 

[ValleyLines142]

Well in that case, we'll stand on the platform and watch our Pacer head off into the night to Preston, and then the following morning we return and board the 0523 Northern service 2N80 to Preston, arriving there at 0621 on Wednesday morning.
