Invalid. Train is fast from Hither Green to London Bridge.

  • So the game remains realistic, you should use the current timetable for the relevant day not including timetable variations for engineering works.

The 22.00 service 3 terminates at the Royal Star Arcade at 22.14 and does not serve the Chequers Bus Station.
