[Albion] Boxing Day trains

[GooGull]

Oh dear, oh dear.

Looks like being a nightmare going to Chelsea on Boxing Day judging by the list of London stations out of service. Are there going to be ANY trains?

 

[dwayne]

Damn !

Oh well will have to walk it !!!

I love London games .....

Provided I can get a ticket I'm getting the tram from Croydon to Wimbledon and the tube from Wimbledon to West Brompton.

 

[Peter Grummit]

No trains and no District Line west of South Ken.

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

National rail website says hourly service from Brighton to Victoria. Then no 11 or 211 bus.

I shall drive to the suburbs of North London then get a Tube

Boxing day tubes are woeful at the best of times. Very sparse service. Only BR trains will be mainline ones.

They'll all be cancelled at the time:



It's set to be a white one.

I was hoping that'd be the first reply.

Might do the coach. Will David Luiz be back by then?

That, or give Liz Costa a call.

Boxing day trains ( lack of) has been a beef of mine for years . Disgraceful with all the sport and shopping sales that kick off that day . I used to have to drive back to the Midlands and motorways get chokka..no other way to get about..

NB , have you checked the Gatwick Express Airport service? Might help somebody.

I’m thinking of booking seats on seagulls travel for this one, as it seems the only option for us. For London games does anyone know approx. what time they aim to get to grounds - is it about an hour before kick off?

 

[blueandwhitestripes]

Just to add to my post, the reason for asking is that 3 of us have hospitality seats for this one, curtesy of a Xmas present from a good friend. We would of course like to make the most of the free pre-match offerings but with no trains running, it seems we will miss out on that. We will be meeting up with said friend to gain access to the stadium so my other question is, will we be asked to show match tickets when boarding the coach or do they just ask to see the coach ticket? Sorry but it’s been many years since I last did coach travel!
