Well I was hoping to avoid travelling all around London, and take advantage of the 24 hour Thameslink services from City Thameslink, however they clearly aren't running all night with COVID-19, so instead we board the 0401 London General service N11 to Acton (Steyne Road), arriving there at 0455 on Sunday morning.
