aye, there's a little shitty train called the "Penistone Line" that runs from sheffield to huddersfield via Meadowhall, Wombwell, Barnsley, Penistone and various other places.

well that shitty train actually tunnels under a corner of my parents' own land now, between Stocksmoor and Brockholes, although brockholes is our nearest stop. so yeah, you're approx half an hour away on the shitty train. that makes you local :)

i call it shitty because it only runs every 2 hours on sundays (about 6 times in each direction) and usually only once an hour the rest of the time, and it's usually a 2-car knackered old diesel train that is unfit to run anywhere else on the rail network, but there are a great many ppl who rely on it every day.
