A typical commuter-belt part of north-west England
Well dropping us in Castleton wasn't going to achieve that....
Before that I had managed to take us to Tideswell at 1620, hoping above hope that the 1657 First South Yorskhire 65 service to Buxton (Market Place) would be taken as a number of onward connections to various destinations run from there,....but, it was off again in the Sheffield direction to Whirlow... :rolleyes:
