This remains as the last valid posting.

It could be an amended timetable may have been showing on the planners over the Christmas period :)

We then get the 22:26 Greater Anglia service 2L85 to Colchester, arriving at 23:42 Thursday evening.

We take advantage of the overnight relaxation rule and return in the morning for the 0443 Greater Anglia service 2F01 to Seven Kings, arriving there at 0537 on Friday morning.

We enter the station and board the 08:33 Metropolitan Line service to Chesham where we arrive at 09:51 on Friday morning.

gazumped again - I thought we could have a day in the Chilterns, but I suppose Camberwell will have to do!

Feeling a bit grumpy we board the 09:07 London United service 148 to Mayfair (Dorchester Hotel) where we alight at 09:51 hopeful of acquiring breakfast.

We'll attempt to fulfill our dreams of making it to the Chilterns by taking the 0957 Arriva London service 2 to Marylebone Station, arriving at 1009 on Friday morning.
