We next board the 1107 Go North East* North Tyne Rockets service 351 to Benton (Station Road North/Hotspur Road), arriving there at 1144 on Wednesday.

* According to Google Maps, the 351 is apparently operated by Gateshead Central Taxis?! I'll take that with a pinch of salt....:lol:

It's either back towards Alnwick or onto Berwick, so we aim for the latter as we board the 1911 Borders Buses service 464 to Tweedmouth (Union Brae), arriving there at 1917 on Wednesday.

A typical commuter-belt part of north-west England
Thankful to find ourselves in the overnight travel relaxation time in a more northerly region, rather than the two giant metropolises of Scotland, we take a night-time break and decide to journey even more to the north, so we next board the 0614 ScotRail service to Inverness that arrives there at 0826 on Thursday.

I'm sure that read Berwick upon Tweed railway station.

Anyway this is where the next valid move is from.

We next take the 22.21 ScotRail service 2S29 to Dalmuir arriving at 23.23 on Wednesday.
