Gives the old address for the Mansfield bus station. The website does not appear to have been updated since March 2013. A new bus station was opened adjacent to the railway station about three years ago. National Express have been promoting the travel facilities they offer at their office...

On a recent visit to Holland I found that you are given NS Day Tickets which give 24 hours unlimited travel in Holland on the day you check in at the station. This means you don't have to use them solely for travelling to or from Hoek van Holland, but can be used for longer journeys during...
