Walk the 2 minutes (364 foot) to Stourbridge Town and get the London Midland service 2P88 (timed for a Sprinter despite being a 139!) to Stourbridge Junction, arriving at 21:23 Friday evening.
We then quickly walk across onto Platform 2 to board the 21:25 London Midland service 2C73 to Smethwick Galton Bridge arriving at 21:45 on Friday night.
Exiting the station and crossing the road to the bus stop at the Blue Gates, we then board the 2244 National Express West Midlands service 83 to West Bromwich (Bus Station), arriving there at 2258 on Friday evening.

Heading over to the station, we then board the 1901 Great Western Railway service 1W59 to Worcester Shrub Hill, arriving there at 2110 on Sunday evening.
Pathetically, Worcester has virtually zero buses after 7 o'clock on a Sunday, somewhat shocking given the size of the city, so we board the 2144 London Midland service 1V24 to Hereford, arriving there at 2227 on Sunday evening.
From Havelock Street, we then board the 0030 Cardiff Bus service 27 to Thornhill (Excalibur Drive/Camelot Way), arriving there at 0355 in the early hours of Monday morning.
