That appears to be it for the rest of the night, so in the morning we walk around the corner to Station Road for the 0845 Stagecoach West service 8 to Quedgeley (Kingsway Health Centre), arriving there at 0909 on Sunday morning.

* The 94 is at 06:30, but don't see the point going back to Cheltenham again.

The 60 is the only service running on a Sunday, so we return on the 1048 departure to Gloucester (Peel Centre & Quays), arriving there at 1119 on Sunday morning.

There is a service five minutes later back to Penryn Campus but obviously there's no point and against the rules of the game.

In the morning we return for the 0555 First Kernow service U1 to Truro (Bus Station), arriving there at 0642 on Tuesday morning.

Hi @ValleyLines142 , I checked realtimetrains.co.uk and this service passes par and does not call there ?
The service begins at Par? Edit: Next week it doesn’t, but this week it did call at Par.

We exit the station onto Neville Street and board the 1711 First Leeds service PR1 to Elland Road P&R, arriving at 1720 on Tuesday evening.

Does seem as though this week only the service originated at Par, presumably because of engineering works. Otherwise it originates Penzance and doesn't call. I must admit I thought we went by the WTT as far as possible, although that's difficult at the moment.

It’s definitely difficult considering everything is running STP or VAR right now, raising the question of what we should actually go by. The paper WTT has it as a pass.
