As a charity challenge, sometime next year, I'm travelling as far as I can by train in 24 hours.
By leaving Plymouth on the 00:20 sleeper, I can at the moment get to York at 00:08 by going:
Plymouth-Paddington-Euston Square-Euston-Manchester Picc-Sheffield-St. Pancras-King's Cross-Edinburgh-Glasgow-Manchester-York, which according to the National Timetable is 1559.5 miles.
I've factored in about two hours of slack, just in case...But does anyone know of any way of getting more miles in?
I know of course that there'll be timetable improvements after Dec, but I'm thinking I might just factor those gains into the slack.
