Anderson Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Anyone know the craic? Know there's planned works this weekend, and what trains are currently planned are fully booked. Assume they'll have to chuck more on now, or should I start looking at alternative routes? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assume they'll have to chuck more on now, or should I start looking at alternative routes? After the first semi-final, I saw an advertisement for a train going down to Wembley. If it’s legit, I can only think that it would be going across the Tyne Valley line, and switching onto the WCML to go down via that way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattypnufc Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Going from/to York. I believe they’re diverting from town via Sunderland and then onto York via the coastal route. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking hell, can you imagine the scenes if Sunderland fans find this out. The train will be bricked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbydazzla Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 (edited) I booked a train from Newcastle for the Friday cos the engineering works on the Sat looked like a ballache Just need to get a match ticket now. Hope the millions of billions of tickets I’ve sorted out for others in the ballot era means I’ll get some good karma Edited February 6 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCW1983 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 There’s going to be a lot of trains diverted and a lot that will require changes at York. A good alternative if to go across to Carlisle and travel down the west coast. East Mids also have engineering works so going from somewhere like Sheffield or Nottingham could also be problematic.

Hovagod Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 My train back is at 7. That’s just idiotic the more I think of it, so will probably need to get another one sorted. Travel to London on the Friday Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyc35i Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Most probably do want I did last time and just take a stroll to Wembley on the morning of the game with the little ones as I live close by. No chance of getting tickets unless there’s some sort of ballot. But I’m happy for those with season tickets get to have the experience Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Hope reckons the engineering works will be going ahead as planned, but they're looking at putting more trains on at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
