As seen from the handbill reproduced above a long day in Lincoln is possible to which there is little to add but a connection also exists at Barnetby off the slightly earlier 17.22 from Lincoln. The big one off opportunity from this is around six hours in Nottingham by taking the Lincoln service shown and changing there into the 10.36 departure which arrives in Nottingham at 11.31. Return from Nottingham is 17.29 arriving at Lincoln 18.23, in time to connect with the 18.35 to Barnetby. The fare, valid only on these particular trains, is just £12.60 off peak return and even less with a railcard.
