Hi Everyone,
I've bought a 7 day 1st class ALRR for the beginning of June. Wrexham General is my home station and I would love your thoughts on my current plan:
Friday 3rd June
Wrexham General >>>> Chester >>>> Crewe >>>> Glasgow Central >> (walk to)>> Glasgow Queen Street >>>> Inverness >>>> Aberdeen
Saturday 4th June
Aberdeen >>>> Penzance (hopefully XC direct!)
Sunday 5th June : Slow and leisurely day out to St. Ives
Monday 6th
Penzance >>>> Newton Abbot >>>> Bristol Parkway >>>> Newport >>>> Wrexham General (on the 'Gerald' train)
Tuesday 7th
OUT - Wrexham General >>>> Chester >>>>> Liverpool Lime Street (Via Halton Curve)>>>>>York
RETURN - York >>>>> Manchester Victoria or Manchester Oxford Road >>>>> Chester >>>> Wrexham General
Wednesday 8th
OUT - Wrexham General >>>>> Crewe >>>>> London Euston >>(underground to Victoria)>> London Victoria >>>>>>>Brighton
RETURN - Brighton >>>>> London St Pancras/KingsCross (Thameslink) >> (walk to)>> London Euston >>>>> Wrexham General
Thursday 9th
Wrexham General >>>> Shrewsbury >>(via Heart of wales line)>> Swansea >>>>Cardiff Central >>>> Wrexham General (once again on the 'Gerald' train)
I've booked reservations on all the long distance Avanti West Coast services that I'm traveling on and I'll be booking reservations for Cross Country and the TFW Gerald Train as soon as they become available to book.
I've tried to allow plenty of time for changing trains. The only day it could be a bit tight is on the Monday when I head home from Penzance with an average change time of 15 minutes.
So anyway it would be really interesting to hear your thoughts on my plan.
Cheers
