There's a tube station at the end of my road.

The nearest a Night Bus gets to me is about 15 miles away.

Do you live somewhere freakish and wrong, like Amersham, or are you just
the victim of amazingly bad planning?

Chalfont & Latimer lies between here and Amersham.

I very much doubt that all-night services could be justified on the
outer reaches of the Met, any more than they could be to High Wycombe
or Milton Keynes (for example).

What *could* perhaps be justified is a service at 0100 and another at
0200 (then nothing until 05something), which is approximately what MK
gets when there isn't engineering work and buses (when these
departures still occur, just by bus instead). Because it doesn't stay
open at night for the sleepers and freight, however, I doubt the
staffing for this could be justified, not to mention the increased
staffing levels LUL-type operations require.
