I tried out my "Melksham to Coventry" that I've just written another thread about.   Lee - your magnificent site, asked for a service after 5pm, came us with a bus to Chippenham, another bus up to nearer Chippenham station, a walk up to the Station.
Then trains with changes at Didcot, Oxford, Birmingham (!) and Coventy, with a Coventry arrival at 21:03.

Is the site intended for tourists who wish to experience a wide variety of types of transport, and see the beauty of some off-route places on the way

My customer left on an on-time 17:02, and should reach his destination by 20:22 ....
