What appears to be the quickest route from A to B isn't always the case

Like most bus users I assumed that the quickest rote from Frome to Glastonbury would be to change buses at Shepton, how wrong could I have been.

Taking the bus from Frome to Shepton you have to wait half an hour to pick up a connection so arrive at Glastonbury by 12.32. Travel on to Wells and you can pick up 3 buses the quickest will get you there by 12.17. Most surprising of all is if you take the Radstock bus and change buses at Chilcomptom and Wells you can arrive at  Glastonbury by 12.01.

As you can see from the case in point what might appear at first to be the quicker route isn't always the case.
