Hmm, the Stapley Rd stops are on Old Shoreham Rd, which it doesn't look as thoguh the 49 uses, as it comes along Portland Rd and does its loop to the south...?

Sorry, I was looking at the 2, which runs along Old Shoreham Road. The 49 does indeed start at Portland Road.

It looks as if the 28 is the only bus serving Uckfield in the evening, so to save going back towards Brighton we instead take the short walk over to the railway station, where we board the 2233 Southern service 1E56 to East Croydon, arriving there at 2341 on Tuesday evening.

Annoyingly, although there is a bus stop outside the Hilton hotel, you have to walk all the way to the roundabout and back up which is over half a mile, so we shall have to wait for the 0143 Thameslink service 9T35 to West Hampstead Thameslink, arriving there at 0219 on Wednesday morning

I think we've ended up in a time warp, as we were in Harrow & Wealdstone in the early morning, but are getting a Diamond bus in the late evening?
