On getting off the Arriva service we watch as our desired service pulls out at 1930 so we nip over to the Anchor Inn for a pint (or two) of Marstons Banks and stumble back around the corner to High Street Stand 10 and depart the fine town of Burton on Trent at 20:30 slightly more inebriated than when we arrived on Trent Barton x38 service to Derby, Victoria Street (Stop B16) arriving at 2100 on Friday evening.

Hate to point this out but you may have missed an earlier bus service, the transpeak 199 to the airport runs almost through the night. Just checked the timetable and there is one at 4:30am on the Saturday which runs to Manchester Airport.

[ValleyLines142]

The X93 runs every half an hour in the summer but seeing as we are outside of the summer timetable we can only stuck to the hourly departures at xx:36, which I suppose gives us more time to eat our fish and chips at this lovely little seaside resort. We continue further south along the coast as we board the 1236 Arriva North East service X93 to Scarborough (Railway Station), arriving there at 1338 on Sunday afternoon.
