Re: the x43 bus

thanks flashy... its only between nelson and burnley that it doesnt stop at every stop

Between Nelson and Burnley X43 runs as a limited stop route, serving only the stops shown on the detailed maps available on this site.

Re: the x43 bus

Don't you mean the X41 ? The X43 is the one that goes from Colne to Manchester via Burnley & Rawtenstall

Wondered why the trains make so much noise coming in to Accy, it's so they can turn off to go up Manchester Rd

Re: the x43 bus

The X buses always used to be the express ones that only stopped at certain bus stops. I think the idea was that less stops meant the overall travel time was quicker.

Your right lancsdave. The X43 doesnt go anywhere near Accrington. That route is: Nelson - Burnley - Rawtenstall - Manchester.

The one that stops on Manchester Road is the X41 which is: Blackburn -Accrington - Haslingden - Helmshore - Prestwich - Manchester.

The other bus that goes up Manchester Road is the 464 Accrington to Rochdale via Haslingden - Rawtenstall - Waterfoot - Bacup - Whitworth - Rochdale.

And the X buses will stop at any stop that you need or where someone wants to get on.

Re: the x43 bus

probably be better if you got the train next time Emma

£4.50 return Accy to Nelson for you

£6.75 for both of you

it would be better going on the train for Tyler, more of an adventure

Re: the x43 bus

ouch, i swear by trains, always check with National Rail Enquiries - Official source for UK train times and timetables before i go anywhere, if you intend going anywhere by train this summer i'd invest in a railcard, kids save 60% and adults 1/3

we went to York a few weeks back, it cost £15 for me and Reece, should have been £25, my sis took her nephew too so between us with my railcard (that only cost £24 for the year) we saved £20 in one journey
