Wonder how long that is guaranteed for if it becomes a big cash-

At a guess the Derby-Nottingham leg will subsidise the Matlock-Derby
end...

The DfT have been promising to reinstate the third Nottingham - Derby
train each hour that Central (under instruction) chopped when the
Skegness - Crewe service was split for quite a while now. I'm just a
little surprised they've decided to do it this way rather than extend
the Crewe trains back to Nottingham, although I'm sure the Matlock
line users group will be delighted to get a regular hourly service
again rather than the current irregular shuttle from Derby.
