Derbyshire bus rail rovers

[STEVIEBOY1]

Good morning,

I am considering spending the Early May Bank Holiday weekend in Derby with the aim to visit the Ecclestone Valley Railway on the Saturday and perhaps Peak Rail on Sunday & maybe combine that with Bakewell..

As the Sunday trains are not too frequent, is there still a combined rover type ticket valid on Buses and trains for the Derby, Matlock, Bakewell Area? and which bus firms website should I look at for timetable info.

Many Thanks.

You'll be looking for a Derbyshire Wayfarer.

For timetables, head to Derbyshire County Council's bus information site here.

Hope this helps

Bear in mind that any journeys on Bank Holiday weekends through Matlock Bath on the A6 can suffer very long delays, especially on the Sunday from late morning onwards, and that is exacerbated if the weather is good. Consider doing the EVR from the Duffield end.

Many thanks for the above info and advice.

The Derbyshire Wayfarer ticket has no start time restrictions at weekends or on Bank Holidays.
