I'll get to Chesham on the morning having slept at my house in MK. Train to Berkhamsted and taxi from there to Chesham looking the likely option!

Does the 'start train' you mention feature in the journey planner? That shows first train from Rickmansworth to Chesham at 0530, which would miss the first Chesham depart at 0515 but would make the next departure at 0557? Thanks.

I recorded the sixth fastest full network time ever (which was the fourth fastest at the time I did it) catching the 05:15 - so although the first few connections on paper don't look ideal, time can be made up later.
