From Stop 5, we get the 17:08 Trent Barton service 20 to Heanor (Market Place (Stop 5)), arriving at 17:23 Sunday afternoon.

Just find it interesting that it stops at Stop 5 at the Market Place in both towns!

From Stop 1 (breaking the trend) at the Market Place we take the 1749 Trent Barton Rainbow 1 service to Codnor, Holywell Avenue arriving there at 1757 on Sunday.

We're not doing bad for Sunday services, no long waits and some of these places aren't exactly big or busy!

We then get the 20:14 Trent Barton service 9.1 the nines to Sutton-in-Ashfield (Sutton in Ashfield), arriving at 20:45 Sunday evening.

This stop is, for some reason, called that on Google Maps, but appears to be the Bus Station

Nottingham isn't a hugely bustling city like Birmingham or Manchester but it's transport system is pretty impressive!

Whilst buses have died down for the night, we can cross over to the tram stop and board the 2345 Nottingham Express Transit service to Butlers Hill, arriving there at 2351 on Sunday evening.
