I assume that's actually a 19. You would probably have been better off staying on Crossrail, but to each his own...

You board a Great Northern service to Peterborough. Hopefully, you won't be doing any time travel any time soon, it gets really disconcerting.

And then board an Arriva Trains Wales service to Ruabon, which goes... via Bala Junction? Something must be wrong. It's still reading as 2015, though...

I don't want this game to stop, that's all.

You park the boat, just to be awkward, in Shepperton Lock.

It won't stop unless people stop posting. It might do things that aren't possible in this day and age, but that's just another reason to do it. I believe we first went back in time just so we could take the District Line to Shoeburyness, though it's been done for comedic reasons as well. We also had a brief foray into parallel universes! And speaking of time travel...

You time travel back to 1898, and invading Martians are attacking you. You escape into Shepperton, and set off in a gallop to Heathrow. Upon arrival, you meet the Earl of Strafford, who is drawing up plans for a new railway line called Crossrail. You alert him to the disaster.

While he goes away to sort it out, leaving you with the plans, you time travel again, to the 1930s when the area becomes Harmsworth Aerodrome, and steal a plane (the second robbery in today's posts) and fly it towards the north, before you crash land at RAF Northolt!
