We take the 1336 Trent Barton 'Ilkeston Flyer' service to Derby, Bus Station (**) arriving at 1347 on Saturday.

I understand the Bus Station is currently closed (due to Covid-19) and the buses are generally stopping outside on Morledge.

Assuming that this is a 2121 arrival, as it is only a twenty minute journey, we then transfer to the buses and board the 2126 First South Yorkshire service 51 to Lodge Moor (Blackbrook Road), arriving there at 2141 on Saturday evening.

I think currently the last bus is at 21.27 from Sheffield, the timetable does change from tomorrow though!

Yep...the last few moves have technically been on the wrong timetable I think by both @ValleyLines142 and I, was kind of hoping no-one would notice because otherwise evening services are very limited :lol:. I'll redo my move from Arundel Gate on Sunday morning, think that's probably easiest!

We next board the 2315 First South Yorkshire service 51 to Sheffield, Centre (Stop AG11), arriving there at 2326 on Saturday evening.
We take the night at Arundel Gate, and in the morning with the new timetable (well actually this is a Stagecoach service so is unaffected!) we board the 05:52 Stagecoach Yorkshire service 120 to Halfway, nr Auckland Way, arriving at 06:32 Sunday morning.
