Stood there yesterday watching the London to Brighton Veteran Car Run!

We take the five minute walk to the Royal Pavilion stop on the Old Steine (which, for anyone planning on visiting the area anytime soon, is in complete disarray because of roadworks!), where we board the 2039 Brighton & Hove service 5B to Hollingbury (County Oak Avenue North), arriving there at 2058 on Friday.

Sadly being too far from Tunbridge Wells station, the only other option we have here, other than a quick hop on the 281, is to board the 2259 Brighton & Hove Regency service 29 to Brighton (Old Steine), arriving there at 0028 on Sunday.

Despite already taking an overnight break, at this hour with it being a Sunday we still have a bit of a wait before the start of services, so we take the five minute walk to the railway station and board the 0657 Southern service 1F93 to Merstham, arriving there at 0808 on Sunday.
