[Albion] More train misery (WHU & Newcastle (home games))

[Easy 10]

The advance notice was trains on that line are running but stop about 5pm so you’ll have fun getting back.

I'm on the EDF P&R so *should* be ok.

If only Dyche or Moyes visited every week.

One of the easiest journeys I’ve ever had.
I got straight on a train at London Road. Stayed around for a drink after the game then straight onto platform and five minute wait for a train to Brighton.

Surely the reason for spending £50+ on watching the Albion isn’t to get home asap

It’s almost like people should like people should read what I say on this thread, same timetable next week. Not like it’s my job or anything.

Based on previous experience, what do you predict trains will be like Brighton to London early on Sunday 3 Sept, please? We need to be at St Pancras about 0730-0800. There are trains showing on National Rail (though no Thameslink) but with the usual warning. Ta.

Looks a bit better for Newcastle , trains back west coast up until 9:20pm

 

[Horsham Gull]

Cant find anything going north later the 1730, not a whole lot of use if we are the 1730 kickoff

I went to Hassocks station. Getting to Brighton no problem but notice up to say last train back to Hassocks was 17.50

 

[BlockDpete]

I used National Express on Saturday night to get home. £14 for a coach to Gatwick wasn't too bad.

Will probably do the same for this Saturday to get back to Crawley.

That’s my plan too - my flight isn’t until Sunday morning but hey ho. Can I ask which one you caught and where from please?

Anyone know the situation for trains from london on saturday? Are there none? National Rail website is listing services, but I dont know if that is what usually would be running if the strike wasnt on.

What’s listed on National Rail Enquiries is what is planned to run, as in that, is the service to London that will run, last northbound 20:40.

There are some trains back on Coastway West after the game on Saturday this time though.

 

[HyperTony]

Only as far as Barnham i think

 

[HeaviestTed]

Trains were fine for me on Saturday (from Brighton to Falmer and back) I stayed to the end and had a pint afterwards. Trains are cool.

 

[jackalbion]

Could have it worse. Trains to TSC Backa Topola in the Europa League have got engineering works for 6 years.
