What do you mean by time out?

Re: Amersham or Chesham
I'm not sure who that was directed at, I can't see where anyone said "time out". It normally refers to when Oyster cards exceed the time limit between touching in and out (this varies according to the stations involved).
I did say "time down" - by which I mean the time taken to do all the stations in the top left corner yp to and including N Harrow.

Is it Chalfont and Latimer? (as used for the Subsurface Challenge 2016)Iain wrote:You're right - with the 8 minute double back plus a wait to reverse at Chesham, it's usually slower, but occasionally it works. As you get Chilterns coming through at Amersham, and there's a reversing siding, the wait at Amersham may be shorter.
There's at least one other option for a NW start that's been used as part of a route before now

Re: Amersham or Chesham
If you have a faster time starting from there then the answer's obviously "yes".
