As time is closing in on us, we decide to change our mode of travel from LU to NR at this interchange station, so we access the NR station and deciding against the short hop to Waterloo, we find a service that heads westwards to a large station and we then board the 2347 SWT service to Reading that arrives there at 0116 on Monday morning.

It did not take us long to be back on the Brighton and Hove bus fleet again...:D

Only a matter of minutes at the same bus stop to wait outside Brighton Open Market before we board the 1334 Brighton and Hove Bus service 26 to Coldean (Forest Road) that arrives there at 1400 on Tuesday afternoon.

It's because it's so boring to do trains all the time so I try and be different. Everyone else just does trains really.

We next board the 1820 Stagecoach in Lancashire service 125 to Bamber Bridge (Withy Trees) that arrives there at 1930 on Saturday evening.

After exploring the town, we turn up at the railway station just after our service departs so wait an hour for the 20:30 Northern service to Blackburn arriving there at 20:46 Saturday Evening

Hate to be picky, but this is technically an invalid move. The distance between the Withy Trees bus stop and the railway station is over a 5 min walk.

But hay, on with the quiz :D

We hen take the 22:30 CrossCountry service to Stafford arriving 23:00 Late Tuesday Night

We take in an overnighter at Stafford station before moving on the next morning with the 06:21 Virgin Trains service which we take as far as Milton Keynes Central, arriving at 07:13 Wednesday morning.

It's fine, as long as you don't try an half an hour long walk against a 5 minute bus journey your fine.
