Also trying to fit in a certain Beaulieu Road move...
Easier to do Beaulieu Road on a Sunday
I've done the the 21:18 Newcastle-Carlisle and the similarly timed Middlesbrough departure, for the reputation both of those trains seem to have-it was no worse than I'm used to in Greater Manchester-and far better than many of the Huddersfield-Man Vic stoppers I've ever done!
Well until 221144 returns
Good idea on the walk to Bitterne, or even walking to Woolston to walk over the Itchen Bridge for some good views of the river
It was a Friday night on the Carlisle

Cheers Kite, I'm actually on a Freedom of Severn and Solent so would just need the return to Avonmouth.This might come in handy when in Bristol

Although I've just looked up fares, £3 anytime day return from Bristol to Avonmouth is dirt cheap!

Means that come 0900, I can head for the shacks between Bath and Warminster!

It is but the Rover isn't valid before 0900.I thought the Severn Beach line was included in the FOSS?
I think the line has a 2 zone flat fare system, because a return to Severn Beach is the same price
And it begins!
91113 was taken to York, where everything fell apart as my XC service to Brum ended up 40 late due to a Bridge strike.
Thankfully, due to me booking tickets on different services (I was meant to jump off at New Street for a 170 to Cheltenham) I'm able to stay put on this HST all the way to at least Bristol Parkway and arrive no later than I would have otherwise.
43301 up front, not sure what's on the back as I had to scramble for a seat.

Cheers mate, both of us are doing well.Just got round belatedly to going through your storm dorris report. As you, me, Tech and a number of other forum members were out on the rails that day I think possibly you had the best experience, bar that tax move!
Hope you and the Mrs are well.
Indeed. My friend who I'd went to stay with in Eastbourne (I think my ticket wallet fell out of my wallet there) took pity and sent me money to cover the flexible tickets I'm using, meaning that I'm only £20 down thankfully!Having been in that situation before, i know how it feels! Thankfully you can continue the bash.
