We await 2A03, Northern's 2147 service towards Wilmslow.
Pleased that this station now has a far far better service than it had when the line to Manchester Airport first opened, we alight at Styal at 2206 on Saturday.

Is that not classed as two seperate services though? Is a through fare available?

Interesting....

With only the N16 being the remaining service (the N37 only goes as far as Silverknowes Neuk oddly), we return in the morning for the 0412 Lothian Buses service 37 to Deanburn (Terminus/Queensway Leisure Centre), arriving there at 0515 on Monday morning.
