What the journey actually looks like

- How far it really runs
- The route covers 93 km against 81 km in a straight line, a detour of 15 percent. Track and road geometry account for the difference.

- If the connection is missed
- The tightest connection we sell here has a 13 percent chance of not being made on the timetable alone. Both legs are sold on one booking, so a missed connection is ours to fix and you are rebooked at no charge.
- First and last departure
- The first service of the day leaves Durham at 06:50 and the last at 07:30, across 5 departures. The return direction keeps its own timetable, so the times back are not these times reversed.

Where these numbers come from
Derived from service area No carrier record names this exact pair. The operators listed publish a service area covering both places at a distance their mode plausibly carries people, which is evidence that the corridor is served and not evidence of a specific service. Pages state which, because presenting the two as the same thing would be dishonest.
Schedules, seat counts and fares are generated by our own model until the supplier contracts are signed. Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance are real. We would rather say that on every page than let a modeled number pass for a filed one.
