Kirkby Stephen to Home
A taxi was booked for us as the railway station is about a mile away from the B&B and we had a little time to look around Kirkby Stephen before it arrived. We were homeward bound , starting with a ride on the Settle to Carlisle railway;
the scenery was brilliant and the journey was relaxing after the walking we’d done.
At Carlisle station Steve went off to purchase sandwiches for lunch and before long our next train arrived to take us south to the Midlands in our reserved seats. Unfortunately, we just happened to be on an earlier train so our reserved places were not valid, as we found out, and had to move to another carriage where, luckily, we found vacant seats. At Wolverhampton we were met by our wives and finished the journey home to Stourbridge. For Lynn it was an overnight stay at Steve’s before returning to South Wales the next day.
