A semi-rural part of north-west England
An annoying mid-day timetabling scenario shows Kneesworth with a gap in the interesting onwards section of that last bus route, so we board the 1217 A2B Bus and Coach service 127 to Royston (Bus Station) that arrives there at 1230 on Wednesday afternoon.

I was a little stuck in Kneesworth too, if I'm being honest.
It is a bit odd, I had my eye on the Hazlingfield bus, but the one back to Royston works too :)

We now walk the 0.4 miles (8 mins) to the St Paul's Road stop, where we board the 14:59 Stagecoach in Cambridge service 7 Citi to Duxford, opp Petersfield Road, arriving exactly an hour later at 15:57 Wednesday afternoon.

Can you supply the bus service number please?
Sorry...a number 59<n<61 has now been added :D

I assume from the arrival time that we're actually at Drumner Street Bus Station (due to the lack of a Drury Street between here and Lincoln!)?

If so, we now walk the 0.3 miles (5 mins) to the Parkside stop, where we board the 20:15 National Express service 498 to Newmarket, opp Horse Racing Museum, arriving at 20:40 Wednesday evening.
