    It's on the back road, not a platform road.

    Yes but if you look at 5M50 most days it appears with warnings, runs as required. Thursday's entry is specific to that day, so looks more likely.

    Recall from the latest edition of SR that a trial Waterloo-Windsor shuttle by CathEx is being undertaken with a view to running more for tourists this summer.
