We wait overnight and return for the first departure on the Sunday morning, the 0650 Southeastern service to London Bridge arriving there at 0828 on Sunday morning.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Error,..my apologies

 

[Andy Pacer]

Mindful of the ten minute minimum connection time that applies at this station, we next board the 0843 Southeastern service to Hastings that arrives there at 1020 on Sunday morning.

We have just come all the way from Hastings, can we go somewhere else please?

Already made an apology in the posting prior to that.

[Xenophon PCDGS]

We take the 1005 South Western Railway service to Putney arriving at 1013 on Saturday morning.

That left only three minutes later than the previous one's arrival time....is it only an official short minimum connection time at Richmond?

So it did, we'll take the 1009 then which arrives at 1019.

 

[ValleyLines142]

We also appear to have jumped back a day, it is Sunday.

From Putney station, allowing enough time for a leeway in Sunday services (I believe there's a service from Richmond to Putney at 1009), we exit and board the 1027 London General service 430 to South Kensington (Victoria & Albert Museum), arriving there at 1056 on Sunday morning.

 

[-Colly405-]

[Xenophon PCDGS]

We next board the 1638 Greater Anglia service to Diss that arrives there at 1759 on Sunday afternoon.

 

[ValleyLines142]

I am astounded to see that the minimum connection time at Stratford is only seven minutes, for a station of its size and multiple modes of transport served.

Nothing of any real variety here at Diss, especially on a Sunday, so we return on the 1818 Greater Anglia service 1P59 to Colchester, arriving there at 1900 on Sunday evening.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

As Sunday begins to draw to a close, we leave the railway station and at the adjacent bus stance, we next board the 1940 First Essex service X20 to Great Dunmow (High Street) that arrives there at 2112 on Sunday evening.
