Tube Olympics - Random 15 Challenge - 19th July

[Soup Dragon]

The starting point is Holborn, the remaining 14 stations will be announced at the start.
As this event will be taking place on a Saturday I wondered what time would suit the majority of people planning to attend. According to TfL the Victoria line is closed as is the Jubilee line between Green Park & Stratford, therefore the following stations will be excluded: Highbury & Islington, Pimlico, Vauxhall, Brixton, Southwark, Bermondsey, Canada Water, Canary Wharf and North Greenwich. I think that leaves 119 stations?

I discussed this with the TOSA and we are hoping that Hakan may be able to post us something again with closed stationS excluded, not that we have asked Hakan yet.....

That could be arranged...

[Soup Dragon]

Thanks for the reminder GU, yes please Hakan if you could run the R15 generator with the closed stations removed. I believe Russell Square will also be closed but under R15 rules a pass through would be allowed.

Since I don't have much time to spare, could you please just PM or post the complete list of closed stations for the day in question. I thinkk these stations should only be excluded as starting points, since pass-throughs are always an option - but that's up to you!

My understanding is that it will not be possible even to pass through Highbury & Islington, Pimlico, Vauxhall, Brixton, Southwark, Bermondsey, Canada Water, Canary Wharf and North Greenwich since the whole Victoria Line and the relevant section of the Jubilee Line are closed on that day, see

Thanks Hakan, hopefully the "TOSA" will be in touch with you soon with confirmation......

[A2]

Assuming a start time around 13:00-14:00 I can confirm my attendance and will see you all at Holborn

[Soup Dragon]

Andrew, at the moment 1200 to 1500 is winning, so I would say that a 1300 would be the best option. I will confirm the start time next week.

[palkanetoijala31]

Oh goody i was hoping for a nice start time im really looking forward to this one more than the full challenge actually i think it will test me more on route knowledge and buses numbers and that sort of thing.
