Fine, D line to Englewood transferring to a 27 DTC arriving the DTC
Transit Center at 17:42.

I would probably only be able to do so if someone were driving back to
Littleton afterward and willing to carry a passenger--the last west-bound
401 leaves Mineral Station at 22:12.  Littleton sucks!  ;)

And then there is that whole joke about the local vs. express passes for
lightrail access.  If you're in Littleton you can't take a lightrail past
Englewood unless you want a pass that's good for going clear to Boulder if
you want.  Madness.
