No trains to/from Worthing to Brighton THIS Saturday (8th)

I read somewhere that there was 2 every half hour 1 direct to Brighton 1 calling at station en route.

If I get the rail BUS replacement from Worthing would I still have to pay for a ticket to Shoreham?

In theory yes, but they never seem to check rail tickets on the replacement buses.

Wouldn't happen in Germany.

Course not! Their rail workers are on strike!

Anyone coming from Barnham or west of Barnham (e.g. me...) might be wise going via the Arun Valley to Three Bridges and down. It takes about the same journey time as the train/bus, but based on what [MENTION=1416]Ernest[/MENTION] has said and my own experience of the 9.33 from Soton which is rammed full by Worthing at 1055, it seems like a very sensible option. There's no way all passengers of said 1055 will fit on the buses.

Catching the 10.15 from Southampton to Three Bridges etc. I really can't be arsed to start jumping on/off buses that will probably take hours to get to the promised land. By the way my pre-match pub drinking time has been shortened by 27 minutes, therefore I will be amending the numbers on my train stash.

Yes, same penalties as a train and if it's busy tickets are checked on boarding to ensure nobody gets on without one

You can get the 700 bus from Worthing to Brighton which leaves every 10 minutes from Marine Parade. It takes 45 mins to brighton Churchill Square, probably quicker than ther rail replacement buses, and the fair is included from Worthing.

Scran & beer in the C&A Shoreham, 700 into Brighton, more beer. Hopefully the football won't spoil a good day.
