Incidentally, Watton-At-Stone now has practically no trains to
Stevenage on Monday to Fridays. The GBNRTT gives no hint of
replacement bus times.

There's long term engineering works near Stevenage, and I think the
replacement buses run "on demand".

There are no shortage of electric trains sitting around unused that
could run an hourly shuttle from Watton to Knebworth,

Wouldn't that involve a reversal at Stevenage?

I meant Letchworth.


but they can't be arsed.

Or the track's not available.

The track to sit around reversing at Stevenage is not available, but the
track to reverse at Letchworth was available a few years ago so I'm not
sure what's changed that justifies bustituting a branch for a year.
