Seems at present the Windermere services are free, with DfT picking up the tab: https://twitter.com/BBCNWT/status/1008646970863423488

So the train is free but you have to buy a train ticket to use the rail replacement bus!

Once again WCR comes to the aid of Northern , this time instead of under the Abellio guise this time Arriva Trains Northern.

Will this be a straight forward non stop service Oxenholme - Windermere , what sort of length trains would be capable of stoppin g at the intermediate stations.
