A Problem That I Cannot Attempt To Sort Until Early Morning...

I'm doing my good deed for a person and accompanying him to the coastal resort of Saltburn. We are due to catch a bus to the rail station on my town and then travel via train but I have checked and there is a train around 8.35am and 9.31am then the next is not for another two hours. And the bus we're catching will arrive at the local station after the train leaves at by a couple of minutes so we need to arrive earlier somehow or go by bus and I know that he wants to go by train.

So I am wondering how early I can/should phone in the morning I've tried sending a text. I'll continue to get ready and prepare some food for the cool bag and see what happens in the morning.
