Darlington fans complete the London Underground Challenge

In memory of James Charlton

Eight Darlington fans have completed the London Underground Challenge in less than 24 hours!

The fans decided to raise funds for MIND in memory of Darlington fan James Charlton by visiting all 272 stations on the London Underground.

In the end, they managed to visit 259 stations in 23 hours 41 minutes and 55 seconds.

Charlotte Parker wrote; "This was longer than we anticipated due to the problems and having to completely re route our waywhich we had to figure out in a quick time.

"It's been busy, it's been tiring, but it's been equally fun. We've made memories and achieved something we can be proud of.

"We really hope we've made James proud. He's kept us all going throughout."
