Hi everyone.
In a few weeks time I am planning a trip to Carlisle.
This will be only my second trip to Carlisle with the previous trip being last summer where it truly hammered it down for most of the time I was there so spent a large amount of the time staying indoors to keep dry and I didn't take my camera with me for some reason, although I wouldn't have taken it out with how bad the rain was.
Anyway, I would like to know where would be good places to get photos and also if there is any routes/buses I should consider maybe having a ride out on whilst I am over there for the day.
Thinking of getting the 0845 Stagecoach 685 from Eldon Square and possibly thinking of maybe getting the 1607 685 back from Carlisle although one idea I have had is to maybe jump off in Haltwhisle (probably near the railway station) to catch a shot of the AD122 and ride it back to Hexham before jumping on either the 10 or 85 back to Eldon Square. One issue with the 0845 685 from Newcastle is that the first bus that I can get to Newcastle from Durham on a Saturday is service X12 arrives at Eldon Square at bang on 0845 so the bus is not really possible for an early start so I am thinking of catching the train from Durham to Newcastle and does anyone have an idea how much I would probably be looking at paying for this journey and how I would go about getting tickets as I almost never use the train.
I would love to hear peoples thoughts on here about my plans for this upcoming outing.
