Oh shoot. Sorry I've just realised I should've put Saturday and not Friday on my previous post. It does look as though the moves are still legal.

Presumably the game's first visit to the new station.

We continue on the 1313 Scotrail service to Laurencekirk arriving at 1358 on Saturday.

Conscious of the fact that there are only three services a day from here on a Sunday, and wishing to embark on the chance to take a long distance journey on a local bus service, we next board the 1037 Arriva North East Max service X18 to Gosforth (Regent Centre Interchange), arriving there at 1401 on Sunday afternoon.

Our only option at this time of night is to head back towards Barnstaple on Stagecoach South West service 21. The journey at 2223 is probably the same vehicle, but I doubt it is guaranteed, therefore we depart at 2323 and head to Barnstaple, Bus Station where we arrive at 0001 on Tuesday morning.
