Being mindful of the fact that the 52 is the only bus serving here, we next board the 0805 Stagecoach Cumbria & North Lancashire service 52 to Workington (Bus Station), arriving there at 0813 on Thursday morning.

Google shows that Bentham has bus stops, but seemingly no buses.

We therefore stay on the rails and await the only train that complies with the rules, the 1538 back through Carnforth towards Morecambe (the train after this isn't until 1815, hence non-compliant). We alight at Bare Lane at 1629 on Thursday.

Goggle says its a 7 minute walk to Glasgow Queen St, so we head there (0.4 mile) and board 1A51, Scotrail's 0742 service towards Aberdeen, from which we alight at Arbroath at 0924 on Friday.

I believe this actually leaves at 0008, which does conform to the '5 minutes' rule.

From Clapham Junction we take the 0046 South Western Railway service to West Byfleet arriving there at 0116 in the early hours of Saturday morning.

I believe that's it for the rest of the night, so in the morning we return for the 0532 South Western Railway service 1S08 to Barnes Bridge, arriving there at 0631 on Saturday morning.
