Its an absolute nightmare!! I had to get to Preston one Sunday night a couple of week ago. Bus turned up on time at Church & Oswaldtwistle, got to Blackburn no problem, next stop is Mill Hill after that the bus driver got lost when he eventually found Cherry Tree(next stop) he went to the wrong side of the station and had to go back to it after going to the next stop. He then got lost again and myself and another lad had to guide the driver using our GPS on our phones. By the time we got to Preston I had missed my connection and had to wait for over an hour. It took just over 2 hours to get to Preston from Ossy.

My advice is DO NOT travel on a Sunday if you don't have to. I've arranged with my uni placement so I don't have to anymore. It was so stressful and a complete waste of time. As if the trains aren't bad enough!!!
