No, it's stations repeated, so Barnehurst :arrow: Crayford :arrow: Dartford :arrow: Slade Green and Barnehurst :arrow: Dartford :arrow: Crayford :arrow: Slade Green would have both been OK.

Woolwich Arsenal - let's see what happens here!

I've been playing off last year's paper copy of the Tube & Rail map (easier than flicking between windows on a screen), so I hadn't noticed that Dartford had crept in! That's a very peculiar arrangement of crossing two Zone boundaries between stations!

I like this game, let's keep it going!! And there is a similar zone-skipping arrangement between Harold Wood and Brentwood.

There's tons of map to play with yet - although we could kill it off after this move (only choice)

Much as skipping to West Ham is a nice idea, it is going to kill us off so I am going to have to go to Star Lane on the way through.

First to 100000 in the 2015+ Tumbleweed contest. Winner of a few rounds of a diverse range of quizzes/games. Some decent times in alternative challenges as a fiftysomething who merely walks briskly. Briefly led All The Actons.
