I seem to remember Lichfield having a surprisingly early finish on the buses for a city of its size, perhaps with the exception of one more journey to a random estate and back, so we play it safe and board the 2143 West Midlands Railway service 2O68 to Bournville, arriving there at 2235 on Thursday evening.

Unfortunately that was the last service of the day and also one of only a handful of stations on the Cross City Line that has no more buses for the day, so all we can do is stop off overnight and return in the morning for the 0618 West Midlands Railway service 2O06 to Longbridge, arriving there at 0714 on Friday morning.
