Nottingham City Transport Quick query: have the temporary amendments to the 10C route ended? Just got a bit surprised when the 15:55 headed off down Kirk Lane as per the standard, rather than going to Ruddington Green as per the temporary route currently advertised!

Last weekend we had 6 x 100 Clubbers taking part, 10 x Marathon Clubbers, 38 x Half Marathon Clubbers and 18 x Half Marathon Clubbers. How about that! Please do come and see us if your junior has done 11, 21, 50, 100 or 250 junior parkruns. We'd be delighted to hand one over!

Gareth No, we are still operating the temporary timetable and shuttle bus.

It’s a special weekend at the GCR in Nottinghamshire and the Nottingham Transport Heritage Centre with our rail ale festival, trains returning to the line, and our new carriage shed! Here’s a short film about it… youtu.be/RolQQxJFkWw?si…

Have a great first day everyone!! 📷📷📷📷
