Nottingham - Derby
Does anyone on the group do Nottingham - Derby or v.v. on a
regulart basis? I want to go to a gig in Nottingham, and due to the crapness of rail services in the Midlands there is no late train back to Sheffield - however there is one from Derby at midnight, so I'm just wondering whether it would be possible to do the trip in an hour at night. All advice welcomed. Cheers, Simon http://www.stopurban4x4s.org.uk/ |

All advice welcomed. http://www.travelinescotland.com is better than the John Prescott version and covers England. It gives a train at 23:21 from Nottingham, change at Derby, arriving at Sheffield at 01:17. It also has some later journeys by bus, one direct and one via East Midlands Airport, for the enthusiastic. I don't know if it is up to date with Central Trains' "emergency" timetable though. -- David Hansen, Edinburgh | PGP email preferred-key number F566DA0E I will always explain revoked keys, unless the UK government prevents me by using the RIP Act 2000. |
