We emerge from the station and make our way to bus stop WS where we board the 250 TfL service at 00:10 to Brixton Station arriving 00:44 on Wednesday morning.

The bus is operated by Arriva London South under contract to Transport for London.

Brixton at just past midnight is one of the less salubrious settlements to find oneself but we are fortunate to be in the company of a number of a group who wish to access a major railway station, so we soon board the 0028 Route Bus service 133 to Liverpool Street railway station that arrives there at 0053 on Wednesday morning

We take a walk to the tube station, only to find there is still a while before the first train of the day, so walk back to the bus stop and board the 04:05 N91 Service to Kings Cross St Pancras Arriving there at 04:50 Wednesday Morning

Just to be clear the two stations have their own seperate stops on the N91 route.

Since we are close to both stations a move from these would be logical.

We make our way into Kings Cross station and catch the first First Capital Connect service of the day, the 05:23 to Peterborough. We arrive here at 06:54 Wednesday morning

Looking at the N91 timetable, I believe the bus stop in question is actually King's Cross station, Caledonian Road.

My appologies, I couldn't find the stop name from the TFL journey planner.

Yes, I can't find any reference to this stop on the TfL journey planner. Regardless of this though, walking is allowed for changing modes and it's quite clear that the stop would serve King's Cross station so no hold required. We are at Peterborough at 0654 on Wednesday.

As far as I am aware, the X44 doesn't serve Roughton Road station? Hold. It's a 12 minute walk from the station to the bus stop according to Traveline.

Resume with the above posting.

Can we also not forget that all postings must end with the "quiz day" being named,

Due to the way in which bus services operate within the city centre we find ourselves facing a 9 minute walk to Parkside, where there is a departure in the early hours heading south. However we don't have a pre-booked ticket for this coach so we resign ourselves to waiting in the city.

With the onset of dawn we make our way across to Emmanuel Street and board the 06:20 Stagecoach in Cambridge Citi1 service to Fulbourn, nr Teversham Road (on Hinton Road) arriving 06:59 on Thursday morning
