Train tickets, yet again

[Pat_Albion]

I know there are other threads about it, i know it may be late to get the best deals and i know how moany people are on here but anyone willing to help me out? Basically just want to know, any deals for the trains to villa? What is the best way of going about it? Which station is closest/best to arrive at blah blah blah ....

go to national rail enquires website, put in your journey details and look at the fares available. You need to go to B'ham New Street, Aston or Whittan(sp)

Lots of threads on this very subject. But I want to start a new one and even acknowledge the fact by saying AGAIN.

In fact know what I did? I looked on the Aston Villa website and under travel arrangements they said on their website Witton is the nearest station but you can use Aston as well.

In the pre internet days I would actually have rung the club and if I didnt have the number use directory enquiries.

but the time you spent on here asking for advice could have been spent looking for the actual tickets, the internet does extend beyond NSC you know.

You're like my mum, she thinks google IS the internet.....

Select journey to Witton.

View prices.

As a price comparison , go to virgin website and type Euston to Witton and compare prices, bear in mind different trains are throwing up different prices due to number of seats available. From Euston to Witton you are looking at about £20

Rather than start another thread I thinkn Ill hijack this one..

I am planning on driving (only because I am a chump and promised I would have a COMPLETELY sober January) but am just wondering where to park?

Having had a look on Google I can see there are a couple of options, local leisure centres, schools etc. Does anyone have any recommendations having been there before?

Cheers chaps!

I booked mine through Virgintrains.com a couple of days ago: Euston to BNS return. It's worked out at £28 for each adult and £14 per kid. I also booked a DaySave group ticket through Southernrailway.com for the train journey to Victoria (and return) which has worked out at £6 per adult and £1 for the sprogs.

As I have said in a previous thread - get yourself down to the Brighton or any Southern ticket office and if you can travel in a group of 4 you can get a groupsave 4 ticket travelling via Kensington Olympia and Watford Junction all the way to Birmingham New Street for a total of £83.60. Split that 4 ways and you are laughing! Leave Brighton at 0849 and arrive in Birmingham at 1136 - simples! So long as you travel via Kensington Olympia (changing at East Croydon and again at Watford Junction) you can join any Virgin Train from Watford Junction. I have booked seats too so bring it on!
