Dales Pony bus to stand in for train
THE Ingleborough Pony bus service will be extended on Sundays to cover rail engineering works.
Until July 27 the Skipton to Settle and Carlisle railway will be closed between Skipton and Langwathby on Sundays, with replacement buses being provided for rail passengers.
The Ingleborough Pony bus service usually connects with trains at Ribblehead station every Sunday, providing links around Ingleborough to Chapel-le-Dale, White Scar Caves, Ingleton and Clapham, and eastwards to Hawes and Swaledale.
During the closure the bus will extend to collect passengers from Skipton, Gargrave and Settle, providing connections at Skipton station with the 9am Leeds to Skipton train.
On July 19 and 26, the Ingleborough Pony bus will depart from outside Skipton Railway Station at 9.50am, running via Gargrave Square, at 10am and Settle Market Place at 10.20am to Ribblehead, for the connecting bus to Ingleton, and then to Hawes, Muker, Reeth and Leyburn.
The return bus will leave Leyburn Market Place at 3.55pm, Reeth at 4.25pm, Hawes at 5.30pm, Ribblehead at 5.48pm and Settle at 6.12pm.
