Oh, now we're stranded. You could have at least taken us to Huddersfield where there are 24 hour TPE services!

We have no option other than to call it a night, before we board the 0922 Northern service 2B37 to Sheffield, arriving there at 1043 on Sunday morning.

There was a bus from Lockwood into Huddersfield just after midnight - though perhaps with too tight a connecting time. (11 minutes from memory)

And those TPE services are buses too.............

Next we board the 1710 CrossCountry service to Stansted Airport, arriving at 1745 on Sunday afternoon.

We then board the 1825 CrossCountry service 1N67 to Nuneaton, arriving there at 2107 on Sunday evening.

I'm sure 11 minutes is ample time. To be fair I wasn't expecting Lockwood to have a bus at that time of the evening!

And those TPE services are buses too.............

We don't take into account rail replacement buses; we work on the normal Working Timetable (WTT). Rail replacement buses are probably only for this weekend or next week.

We then board the 1825 CrossCountry service 1N67 to Nuneaton, arriving there at 2107 on Sunday evening.
