In the morning, we return for the 0610 Blackpool Transport service 11A/7* to Bispham (Post Office), arriving there at 0723 on Monday morning.

* The 11A turns into a 7 upon arrival at Corporation Street. Whilst technically numbered as two separate services, it is a guaranteed connection as it is formed of the same vehicle and it is shown in the timetable as going through, so I imagine through fares are available too.

Funny to have revisted Nelson so quickly after being there previously, but adds to the fun I guess.

Just a fraction too far away from Burnley to warrant being able to connect with anything else so we wait for the 2155 Burnley Bus Company Mainline service M6 to Burnley (Bus Station), arriving there at 2202 on Tuesday evening.
