scrxisi wrote:Yep - so at the moment, you are still on for a maximum 60. If you score less than 5 in either of the remaining two rounds, that will be dropped instead.
the reason why im confused is the fact u gave me 4 points for round 3 instead of 5? to tie with peter on 28 points at that time i would have gained 13 points for the win on saturday a 1st :lol:

I change my twist and say we include at least the Overground station and MUST depart on Matt's 1231 train whatever the direction 8)

:lol: OK who says we start at NXG at 1302 then? Maybe we can include in the Poll?

I think adding National Rail would be very fun. Perhaps it could be a Z1-4 DLR, Tube and NR round. That would be epic. I also approve of starting on a scrxisi train.

scrxisi wrote:NR would be possibly very interesting actually, though given GU hadn't heard of Denmark Hill, which I thought was a better known inner London NR station, he might find it challenging :P

Did a random selection:

Canonbury
St. John's
Willesden Green
Clapham North
North Dulwich
Kilburn
Ladywell
Kilburn High Road
Southwark
Camden Road
Turnpike Lane
Sundridge Park
Northumberland Park
South Hampstead
Kilburn Park

Quite a few grimey little NR places in there!
Indeed, NUM would be a nightmare only sees an hourly frequency! EVL.... :twisted:

I've not looked at timings, but it could be an option to try and get there in the other direction, meaning 2tph total.

Train frequencies are generally described in one direction- so a 30 minute frequency would mean 2tph (in that direction)- so 4 trains in total

Therefore NUM does see 1tph in each direction (though not when Spurs play at home)

Of course, hence why I included 'total'. Still a massive pain when it comes to visit it on a challenge!

Try adding Sudbury Hill Harrow on there and Angel Road on there, now those would be some interesting start points :wink:
