It is hard to believe that 2013 will see our 8th Derbyshire gathering, and we are so pleased that it has become an established and popular event in the annual rally calendar. Our gathering last year received many complimentary reports in the enthusiast magazines. It was grand to see so many entrants and visitors enjoying themselves as preserved buses, carrying good crowds, were loading and departing on their frequent bus services, surrounded by static vehicles being judged and sales stalls plying their trade, all amongst the nostalgic sounds and smells of Peak Rail’s steam and diesel railway engines.
To many, a highlight of our event is the opportunity to enjoy travelling on both preserved buses and the heritage railway, and Peak Rail offer special reduced price single fares on their trains so that the opposite journey may be made on the frequent free bus services that visit all three stations on this scenic line. Last year our route to Chatsworth House, which travels through the royal park and terminates in front of this stately home, carried large crowds and will thus have an increased frequency for 2013.
