    Most of the Brum to Gatwick/Brighton trains used the route via Guildford anyway, and it's this I was referring to when I said you can still do it. I believe (but may be wrong) that only one of the three direct daily services went via the Kensington route.

    I think (but may also be wrong) that it was the other way round - one of the three (??four??) went via Guildford, the rest via KO.
    But it's all academic now.
