It was over the Christmas period in 2000 that the "Ilkeston Flyer" ran up and down Bath Street and although it proved very popular helping shoppers up and down the hill, it hasn't been seen since and you don't have to visit an optician to confirm that. There are still several Stop signs at various points on Bath Street including this one right outside an optician's shop if you still don't believe me. As we will soon be reaching the tenth anniversary of the road train's temporary visit and in view of the government's policy just announced to remove surplus and confusing signs there is perhaps no better place to start than here .... or can we still expects it's return in December? Probably not.
