I’m on a train now, delayed, that should arrive at Paddington at 2020 but is predicted to arrive at 2038. I have a ticket that allows the tube, and my next train leaves St P at 2132. Now, depending on which source you read on this forum either 45 or 51 minutes are allowed for this transfer, so I should make it, arriving at St P at 2129 at the latest.
Then I thought, what if I arrived at Paddington, say 43 minutes before my departure from St P, but still late. In theory, I can’t make my connection, but practically I could easily do it in that time. If I don’t mind getting the next later train from St P, can I go for a kebab and a pint? Can I claim delay repay?
