At least the return of the £2 bus fare cap in January will go some way to negate this!

XC have been adopting this tactic for years, especially at weekends…!

and less likely to break down en-route…!

X17 Barnsley to Wirksworth on a Sunday, just under 3 hours on a double decker!

Unfortunately the TransPeak picks up at Derby Bus Station a good 15 minutes walk from the railway station. A walk at certain times of the day or in the dark can be quite off putting to say the least! I suppose you can break up the walk by popping into the Alexandra or Brunswick for an excellent...

The easiest way to improve connections at both Matlock and Buxton stations is to run the TransPeak Bus every 30 minutes with through train/bus ticketing and extend the hours of operation until 2300. This would be more beneficial in increasing public transport accessibility to the Peak District...

Presumably Northern will completely abandon other Manchester/Lancashire services on Sunday in attempt to find enough volunteer train crew to resource the extra Southport trains?

Sadly I would never trust the rail network to go to airport to catch a plane!

I suspect that the rail line is closed more frequently than the Crimea Pass these days. 1782919119 Of course the line shouldn’t be closed but if TfW can’t be bothered to resource the line properly (minimum 2 hourly frequency) and provide a reliable, usable service then maybe it’s better being...
