Les,
It is not only trains that run to such timetables. We are mid-way between Huntingdon and Peterborough and there is a bus into Peterborough at 7.30 am, next is 9.30 am so if you miss the first you do not get to work. If we were right out in the back of beyond then perhaps some excuse but our village is right on the A1. Years ago there was a rail station at Abbots Ripton only about 4 miles away, gone years past as has the Home station so we cannot even catch a train without the bus.
Bus every few minutes in towns but not out in the country.
John.
