Run to West India Quay (attempted to get on one of the Bank- Lewisham trains before the ex Stratford train pulled in, but failed)!
My route was

Ooops....
This never occured to me... until now!!! However at West india Quay, as I said in my route I failed to get an earlier Lewisham train thus the next one in at WIQ was the ex Stratford before boarding a Lewisham bound train after that. There was no gain in time but did fail to leave Poplar by train. I'll await the judges decision on the outcome.

This is a Central line train to "Woodford via Hainault"- sadly, not no more!

When Tangy announced his route in the pub I twigged immediately but didn't want to say anything at the time......
But yes quite cleary under the R15 rules you must depart/arrive all stations by train and obviously this should have been a DLR departure from Poplar... Over to The BERC and I imagine that the placings must be altered with the other teams all moving up a place..

Just catching up on the forum tonight after a couple of busy weeks.
First things first, sorry to hear about your accident Sara, hope you are recovering okay.
Now for the "Official" results.... which replace those announced in the pub...!
1. 3:53:16 Peter Smyth (finished at West Hampsted)
2. 3:58:42 Andi, Sara & James Laughlin (Tower Hill)
3. 4:00:34 Al Brown (Holloway Road)
4. 4:12:00 Antony & Kevin (Holloway Road)
5. DQ - Tangy (14 stations in 3:49:00)
Rules of R15 are clear that you have to depart from the first station by train, the only exception was made for the special round starting from Aldwych last year.
