Cardiff to Manchester

On Saturday all the Australian fans converged on Cardiff for the World Rugby League Cup. Naturally Australia won convincingly. Now it's Sunday morning and you're rostered to bring some of the many fans back to Manchester where they're due to catch a high-speed train home.

Indian Pacific carriages have been hired to cover the expected numbers. To make the job more difficult, you're rostered to pick up passengers at smaller stations along the way to Manchester since everybody couldn't find accommodation in Cardiff overnight. Your train is not the only train operating under some pressure today so there may be some delays.
