Not enough connection time to catch the last train, so we take advantage of the overnight travel relaxation rule and take a well-earnest rest until we walk to the adjacent bus stop and there next board the 0658 First Wessex, Dorset & South Somerset service X53 to Bridport (Bus Station) that arrives there at 0752 on Wednesday.

[Xenophon PCDGS]

My apologies about the current situation prevailing at Bridport bus station. I have not been there since 1975 where we spent our first holiday after being married and in those days, there were better bus services running from the bus station.

That will teach me not to rely on the fact that a bus station was mentioned, rather than checking on what happens in 2024...
