Title: Buxton Away travel
Post by: NauticaPete on January 26, 2018, 10:47:10 PM: How many are we expecting to take? Are some people going on the train? E.g. 10:55 from Hale, arr Buxton 12:48. Costs 13.10 return, unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any group discount on Northern rail for some reason :(

Was only £10 return when booked few weeks back, anyone at a loose end that fancies the trip join us on there. I'd be thinking about 150-200 robins present.

You do live in Wilmslow though which shortens the journey to Macc a fair bit!
