That was a fluke - I just used RTT...

With a minimum connection time of 8 minutes, we watch the 0803 service depart, and instead await TransPennine Express's 0905 service 1U31 towards Scarborough. We alight at Seamer at 0946 on Saturday.

That is it for the rest of the night, so in the morning we return for the 0814 Arriva Yorkshire service 201 to Beeston Hill (Dewsbury Road/Hunslet Hall Road), arriving there at 0910 on Sunday morning.

 

[-Colly405-]

[-Colly405-]

It appears that we cannot cross the River Holme in this vicinity, so our only option, it being a Sunday, is to board a further First HCV&H service 310.
Wanting to see some more of the local scenery, and possibly partaking of some Summer Wine, we board at 1227 (continuing heading away from Huddersfield, in the knowledge that our next option may well be a further journey on the 310), and alight at Hepworth (Dean Br La / Butt La) at 1246 on Sunday.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Noting that we are at a terminus, so the five minute minimum connection time not applying if the same return service is used which in this case is four minutes, we next board the 1250 First Halifax, Calder Valley & Huddersfield Holme Valley Connect service 310 to Lockwood (Bridge Street Waterside) that arrives there at 1321 on Sunday afternoon.

[-Colly405-]

This appears to be right by the Halfway tram stop, so let's saunter to the tram platform and depart at 0815 on Sheffield SuperTram Blue route, from which we alight at Hillsborough tram stop at 0908 on Monday.
