I live in a small Sussex village. We don't have a bus timetable, we have a calendar and we get ten trains a day (but none at weekends of course).
This morning I waited just over an hour, with no trains stopping in either direction. It was then announced (at 8.55) that the next train would be the 12.37 "Atlantic Coast Express"
wtf ? Atlantic Coast Express and it stops at Faygate !!!!!!!!!
....and they can't stop one from Horsham ?

I wondered when the ACE would run again lol , and YES, I am an anorack !! The ACE used to run out of Waterloo and went to seaside resorts ( but usually in South Western Britain ! ).
It sounds,to me, like it was a train operated by the Bluebell Railway, which did at some stage have plans to "expand" it's service to Horsham.

Wasn't this the line that James May tried to resurrect with Hornby on TV recently from Barnstaple to Bideford?
