Leaving the railway station to the adjacent bus stop outside, we next board the 1611 NIBS Buses service 81 to Brentwood (Stop J on Crown Street) that arrives there at 1622 on Wednesday afternoon.

 

[Andy Pacer]

We take the 1711 First Essex service 251 to Wickford, The Swans arriving at 1752 on Wednesday.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

We next board the 1807 First Essex service 16 to Runwell (the bus stop near Church End Lane on Runwell Road) that arrives there at 1825 on Wednesday evening.

 

[ValleyLines142]

Assuming we're at the church itself, we then board the 1843 First Essex service 94A to South Woodham Ferrers (Collingwood Road), arriving there at 1903 on Wednesday evening.

 

[NorwichRailFan]

As there aren't many options from this stop at this time in the evening we have to risk a 2 minute connection to the 19:05 First Essex 36 to South Woodham Ferrers (Asda Store) where we arrive at 19:08.

That won't be permitted unfortunately; the minimum connection time is five minutes on this game (unless otherwise stated) unless its the same bus at a terminus doing its return route.

However, I'm a little taken aback as Bus Times stated that Collingwood Road is a principle stop, so I assumed this would be a town centre stop; on reflection its not! We can either break our journey overnight and continue in the morning or on my previous move, we could continue on the 94A to Asda where there are still onward connections from there - I'll leave that for you all to decide

 

[NorwichRailFan]

I'd say we should stay on the 94A to asda and get on the 19:12 First Essex 36 to Chelmsford Railway Station (Stand 12) where we arrive at 19:50.

Must confess that due to the querying of the location of the Cross Keys stop in the aforementioned Normanston, which looks to just be Lowestoft in general, I lost track of where we are, due to the rather poor geographical settlement locations used by most travel sites. However, we didn't make an immediate return so it is still within the rules.

 

[ValleyLines142]

We take the 5 minute 0.2 mile walk to the Millfields bus stop on Norfolk Road and wait for the 1245 Border Bus service 146 to Carlton Colville, Transport Museum arriving at 1319 on Thursday.

We arrived at 1246?

[-Colly405-]

Rockland St Mary has just the Our Bus 85, so, we let the vehicle continue to its terminus at Surlingham, and rejoin it on its way back to Norwich, on the opposite side of the road to where we alighted. With no other routes coming anywhere near the 85 until we are back in Norwich, we alight at Norwich Bus Station (stand L) at 1707 on Thursday.
