Are there not any services beforehand? Seems quite a late start.

Not that I can see. There won't be much demand going into Tamworth early in the morning.

Yeah I meant any NXWM services? Sure there's a few 5am starts somewhere from Sutton.

I don't know. I wanted to head out of the TfWM area.

Fair play that. I was surprised when we got to Birmingham to be honest

Quite a large gap in services occur here for some silly reason, so we have no choice other than to wait for the 2016 Travel de Courcey service 585 to Gosford Green (Clements Street), arriving there at 2049 on Wednesday evening.

The reason is there is nothing there... which makes it perfect for our game!

There is a 1735 to Rugby available, but as we have moved on we should probably continue.

Is this the 585? If so we should use it then because really a 4 hour wait is unreasonable and the aim of the game is to keep moving. Sorry to throw that spanner in the works!
