For my trip to Warley this November, I am in four minds as to what to do.
1) The most simple option is the 09:31 from Winchester to Birmingham International.
2) The next option is the 07:23 from Winchester to Basingstoke, then GWR to Reading and 09:12 to Birmingham International. This would give me an extra hour, but I have been stung by first SWR and then NR on both occasions that I tried to take the train in the past (failure at Eastleigh and over-running engineering works at Basingstoke, neither of which are remotely tolerable or acceptable) and I can't help but feel that they're preparing to pull a similar stunt should I take this train again.
3) Saturday evening, night at Premier Inn, back Sunday.
4) Go on Saturday and miss Chelsea vs Tottenham on BT Sport.
