Edinburgh to Carlisle Rail Replacement Bus Sunday 3rd June

[Whistler40145]

Hi there

I wasn’t sure which section to post this in, so please move it to the relevant section Moderators.

I’m booked to travel on a Transpennine Express RRB from Edinburgh to Carlisle on Sunday 3rd June, also booked to call at Lockerbie. Journey time is 2 hours 51 minutes to Carlisle.

Does anyone know what route RRBs usually take?

Obviously, they can take the M8 towards Glasgow, then the M74 to the M6 or can take the longer and slower route through the Borders on the A7.

I look forward to your replies.

Tim

I don't know which way the buses go, but having tried numerous routes on this journey by car, I've found the A702 then A74(m) to be the quickest.

That's the way they go.

Do you mean Sunday 3rd June (or Friday 1st?).

Sunday 3rd, David.

I’m returning that way after the SRPS overnight tour.
