I believe it's just the 56 in this neck of the woods so to save returning on the same route we take the ten minute/0.5 mile walk to Briarfield Road and board the 1256 Arriva Midlands service 58 to New Humberstone (Smedmore Road), arriving there at 1318 on Friday.

Wouldn't mind a little sample of it, in fact I haven't done any of Leicester so I really should, I've only changed trains there and briefly stood outside the station. However I do want to do the elephant trail so I will look into it then. Anyway, that's for another time.

We next board the 1932 Arriva Midlands service LC15 to Coalville (Memorial Square), arriving there at 2005 on Friday.
