Hi all,
I sometimes travel Long Eaton - Sheffield on an offpeak day return. CDR is usually £11.90.
During the Derby blockade in August both National Rail and East Midlands Trains are showing a CDR £10.10, routed LGE-EMD-NOT-SHF or LGE-bus-DBY-bus-CHD-SHF. I have no desire to use the rail replacement buses but would do the routing via EMD and/or NOT. But what is this £10.10 fare - I can't find it on BRFARES for example? And what restrictions does it carry? Living equally as close to EMD as LGE I'd be delighted to buy this £10.10 fare for travel from originating / terminating at EMD (break / start late / finish short) rather than pay the rediculous normal £21.50 SVR from/to Parkway to Sheffield.
Thanks for any advice.
