Returning same day?

sandraroffey

no. staying about 5 days i think.

Going any way other than via London is going to take much longer. Otherwise you would just need to take a short tube journey from Euston to Victoria on the Victoria line, does your disability make this difficult? There is step free access at Euston, but not at Victoria.

You may find it easy to change at Milton Keynes Central on to a West London line service to East Croydon and change on to the Bognor Regis train.

The ICT Engineer's suggestion is quite straightforward.
Stoke - Milton Keynes Central
MKC - East Croydon.
East Croydon - Bognor.

Use any journey planner and specify via Kensington Olympia and you will see itineraries.

For example:
An Off Peak Return will be £60.80 with railcard discount.
Valid at off peak times with the return portion usable up to 30 days after the outward leg.

I used Southern's journey planner to get this info, but any journey planner should provide this.

Good suggestion, there are lifts to all platforms at East Croydon, so probably better than using the tube.
