This is a Central line train to "Woodford via Hainault"- sadly, not no more!

Re: Virtual Transport Challenge
Why not try a virtual public transport race?
This will take some explanatio, but using online timetables of buses, trains, trams, metro and ferry and starting on a virtual Monday morning at 09.00 a 25 town race across England. As you can gather im bored.

Re: Virtual Transport Challenge
Well that's right, if the start point at 09.00 on a Monday morning with the current timetable is Redruth and all 25 destinations begin with R, where am I at the 2nd point at 15.40?

Re: Virtual Transport Challenge
Don't think you can get to Rolleston from Redruth by 1540. Think it must be somewhere in the London area. Rectory Road arrives at 1542, and Ravensbourne at 1543 but I can't find one that is 1540 exactly.

Re: Virtual Transport Challenge
You may have realised that I'm guessing without checking here - how about Rowley Regis then if your London stations don't fit?

Re: Virtual Transport Challenge
That's the 1st change unless you more experienced challengers can get to this location quicker using an alternative route, remember only bus train tram metro and ferry can be used, I'll post the 2nd change at 16.00

Re: Virtual Transport Challenge
Off course the idea was for me to give the 2nd location and for you to work out the quickest way to reach it,and then ill start the 2nd stage.
