We then decide to head further east with a quick jaunt inland, so we board the 0915 Compass Travel service 85, taking us all the way to Worthing South Street, where we alight at 1021 on Monday morning.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

We next decide to visit a settlement with a large National Trust estate which has a great house, so we board the 1105 Stagecoach South service 1 to Petworth (Market Square) that arrives there at 1212 on Monday afternoon.

I knew you'd be back Paul; you always do this

This time was to see how I could manage to continue without causing any undue problems for other contestants.

Then we take the Compass Travel service 99 at 1315 to Chichester Westgate, arriving 1345 on Monday afternoon.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

We take the 3 minute walk to Orchard Street and board the 1419 Stagecoach South service 60 to West Lavington (opposite The Royal Oak PH) that arrives there at 1444 on Monday afternoon.

 

[dzug2]

We now travel on the Stagecoach South 60 service leaving at 1507 and arriving at Pagham The Parade at 1606 Monday afternoon.

 

[ValleyLines142]

[ValleyLines142]

We then continue eastwards along the coast and board the 1830 Stagecoach South service 700 to Brighton (Old Steine), arriving there at 2000 on Monday evening.

 

[James Wake]

We then continue eastwards along the coast and board the 1830 Stagecoach South service 700 to Brighton (Old Steine), arriving there at 2000 on Monday evening.

There are 700s before this and the actual arrival time is 1955 at the Old Steine, having checked the timetable, as its a move I would have done,

I would suggest we continue on the 1752 Stagecoach South service 700 to Brighton Old Steine, arriving 1925 on Monday evening.

 

[dzug2]

We make our way to the nearby Sea Life stop and take the Brighton and Hove service 12 at 1932, travelling to Seaford station, arriving at 2007 Monday evening

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

We enter the railway station and board the 2028 SN service to Moulsecoomb that arrives there at 2103 on Monday evening.

There was just this one (the 1752) beforehand; I don't really consider it a major issue to be honest.

Besides, the 1830 was actually (according to Traveline) the next 700 anyway.

Not saying this as a dig but in the future, I wouldn't bother taking matters into your own hands unless it breaks the two hour rule at stops; to change it over a difference of just over half an hour really wasn't worth it. If you're not happy with a move I would speak to the Quizmasters.

We enter the railway station and board the 2028 SN service to Moulsecoomb that arrives there at 2103 on Monday evening.

But anyway, not to worry. We then make our way to the Brighton University bus stop and board the 2135 Brighton and Hove Buses service 23 to Brighton Marina, arriving there at 2154 on Monday evening.

Rules
You should use the first available service to reach your destination after allowing for the minimum interchange time.

I was referring to this rule, I will contact the quizmasters next time if there are any problems.

Nice move made Dan, and I'll continue by saying we next board the 2219 Brighton and Hove Bus and Coach Company service 21 to Hove Palmeira Square, where we alight at 2259 on Monday evening.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

We next board the 2305 Brighton and Hove Bus and Coach Company service 5B to Hollingbury (Snipe Hotel) that arrives there at 2333 on Monday evening.

 

[James Wake]

Walking along the road for 0.4 miles to the Carden Hill stop, we next board the 2354 Brighton and Hove Bus and Coach Company service 46, which changes its route number to a 24 at Hollingbury Asda all the way to Brighton Old Steine, arriving at 0021 in the early hours of Tuesday morning.

 

[ValleyLines142]

We then board the 0027 Brighton and Hove Buses service 7 to Hove (Railway Station), arriving there at 0039 in the early hours of Tuesday morning.

 

[James Wake]

We then board the 0050 Brighton and Hove Bus and Coach Company service N7 to North Street stop C, arriving at 0103 on Tuesday morning.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

We next board the 0116 Brighton and Hove Bus and Coach Company service N25 to Hove (George Street South) that arrives there at 0125 on Tuesday morning.

 

[ValleyLines142]

I accidentally break my leg whilst getting off the N25, so we hop (literally) on the 0149 Brighton and Hove Buses service N7 to Royal Sussex County Hospital (where I may need an operation), arriving there at 0208 in the early hours of Tuesday morning.

 

[James Wake]

Its quite nice to be going round an area I know well, and the bus system too
We then wait a while for Paul's leg to be healed, then walk down to Paston Place on the seafront, and board the 0327 Brighton and Hove Bus and Coach Company service N12 to Hampden Park Station where we arrive at 0425 on Tuesday morning.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

We next board the 0222 Brighton and Hove Bus and Coach Company service N7 to Hove railway station that arrives there at 0239 on Tuesday morning.

Same. I've been going to Brighton on holidays every single year since I was a baby. My Dad loves the London to Brighton Veteran Car Run that takes place on the first weekend in November, so we've gone down every year. As such, our knolwedge of the buses, and the local area in general, has much been within our favour.

We then wait a while for Paul's leg to be healed.

It's my leg that went, not Paul's!

Then walk down to Paston Place on the seafront, and board the 0327 Brighton and Hove Bus and Coach Company service N12 to Hampden Park Station where we arrive at 0425 on Tuesday morning.

We then enter the station and board 1F01, the 0512 Southern service to East Croydon, arriving there at 0615 on Tuesday morning.

 

[Bungle965]

We then board the 0632 Thameslink service to St Pancras Intonational arriving at 0702 on Tuesday morning.

 

[ValleyLines142]

We then board 1F08, the 0724 East Midlands Trains service to Sheffield, arriving there at 0940 on Tuesday morning.

 

[johnnychips]

After that we take the First South Yorkshire X78 from Sheffield Interchange at 0955 to Conisbrough Castle (Castle Hill stop) arriving 1056 on Tuesday morning. Let's hope Dan can get up the finest Norman keep in the UK with his leg in plaster after his Brighton escapades.

 

[Trainfan344]

We have a while to wait here before catching the 10:38 East Midlands Trains service to Norwich arriving there at 14:13 Tuesday Afternoon *Sighs* I'll have to wait then till I get back to Norwich...

 

[johnnychips]

Sorry TF, I think I just got in while you were typing.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

After that we take the First South Yorkshire X78 from Sheffield Interchange at 0955 to Conisbrough Castle (Castle Hill stop) arriving 1056 on Tuesday morning. Let's hope Dan can get up the finest Norman keep in the UK with his leg in plaster after his Brighton escapades.

The exertion being too much to contemplate, we then take the short walk to Church Street, where we board the 1103 Stagecoach Yorkshire service 222 to Doncaster (Duke Street) that arrives there at 1124 on Tuesday morning.

 

[dzug2]

Plenty of time to catch the rather circuitous 1203 Northern service to Gainsborough Lea Road arriving at 1339 Tuesday afternoon

 

[Trainfan344]

We are quickly on our way again as we board the 13:48 Northern Service to Sheffield Arriving there at 14:48, and about 5 hours after we left.
