We take the 2017 Thameslink service to St Albans City arriving at 2142 on Wednesday.

 

[ValleyLines142]

How did we end up going from Elstree to St Albans via St Helier? think it only takes about ten minutes to get between the two!

Well buses around St Albans in the evening aren't the best during COVID-19, so we'll have to wait for the 2201 Thameslink service 9T69 to Brighton, arriving there at 2347 on Wednesday evening.

 

[Andy Pacer]

I have to admit I hadn't looked at the previous move!

We take the 2354 Thameslink service to Three Bridges arriving there at 0026 in the early hours of Thursday morning.

We take the 2354 Thameslink service to Three Bridges arriving there at 0026 in the early hours of Thursday morning.

Ten minute connection time at Brighton sorry!

 

[Andy Pacer]

Ten minute connection time at Brighton sorry!

[ValleyLines142]

I agree. I'm against making assumptions of vehicle allocation whether it be buses or trains as there is no reason why a vehicle change wouldn't take place (although probably not at that time of night!)

 

[ValleyLines142]

Very true.

We take the 0543 Southern service to Haywards Heath arriving at 0611 on Thursday morning.

[DanTrain]

Fortunately we have no reason to visit the hospital, so we grab some breakfast whilst we wait for the 08:09 The Big Lemon service 47 to Saltdean, Longridge Avenue Coop, arriving at 08:22 Thursday morning.

[DanTrain]

I'm struggling a bit for inspiration here so we walk the 0.3 miles to Seven Dials itself where we board the 09:11 Brighton & Hover service 7 to Hove, George Street, arriving at 09:19 Thursday morning.

That has to win a contest for most bizarre abbreviaton, took me some time to work out how they'd got to it
