Tips for Marilyns by train
- Not every train calls at every small station, so check that the train you plan to catch actually stops at yours, in both directions.
- Trains on rural lines can be hours apart, and the last one back is often early. Check it before you set off and plan your descent around it.
- Check the timetable for the day you're travelling, not just the usual pattern: engineering works and seasonal changes are common on rural lines.
