I need to arrange for somebody to get up from London to South Normanton for a couple of days next Tue/Wed - has to be by public transport as well cos they're from the US and don't know how to drive on our side of the road or work a clutch and gears.
  I imagine the nearest station is Alfreton? But is that the best route by rail? 
 I would take them myself and visit Cornerspeed for a cuppa on the way, but I'll be in Paris instead. 
 Paris....South Normanton....Paris.....South Normanton, it's a tough call
