[Travel] What trains are we planning to get

[Cowfold Seagull]

07.55 from Eastbourne. Should be ordering Full English around same time...

Full English? you won't make Baker Street until it's time for brunch!

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

10:23 from Horsham

Good choice.

 

[Midget]

Just a reminder:

No Thameslink trains between London Bridge and St Pancras.

Walking to preferred pubs may be affected by road closures in the morning for the marathon - details here:

So remember to allow for the tube etc.

That's all

Not much chat about how to get back! Sounds like travel up to Wembley will be fairly spread out/different routes for different pubs etc. going home is a different story. Fewer trains on a Sunday evening and everyone trying to pile on the same ones?

 

[Horses Arse]

11-15 to Clapham, overground to brondersbury, 12-30 beer and food in North london tavern and then a 30 mins journey to Wembley. Marvelous, much easier than home games

 

[joydivisionovengloves]

11am from Bristol.

 

[Carlos BC]

08:29 from Brighton, breakfast in the Sir John Oldcastle as per usual, a few cheap(er) beers then Metropolitan line when we're ready to move on.

Now that work's over, must admit I'm getting a bit excited. Our colours & scarves all drying on the line ready

Same starting itinerary as us!

 

[ac gull]

train around half 11 to 12 from High Wycombe

 

[Vicar!]

How many do you think will travel up from LA? I wish I was coming up from LA but I will be in Hove Saturday evening.

Your one cow away from a major problem. Did think about the LA route but no back up if things go wrong.

 

[Gazwag]

Drive to Sevenoaks then 4 trains an hour to LB to arrive there about 1200 table booked for lunch then fight though to the jubilee line about 1345

Use Wembley Central, avoiding 10,000’s queuing at Wembley Park.

 

[BN9 BHA]

9.07 from Polegate to Victoria.

Hopefully getting on this train at Lewes.

 

[doogie004]

08.11am from Billingshurst 25 plus

 

[Sheebo]

Crowborough massive are on the 11.11 from Tunbridge Wells, better chance of getting home after our penalty shootout win than getting back to Crowborough !!

Didn’t fancy the uckfield line then?!

 

[Weststander]

Just booked our tickets, last minute Charlie

Braving; midday Brighton - Victoria - then Underground ultimately to Wembley Park. Depending on times and crowds, might have a proper bite to eat somewhere. Preston Park is nearby, but I’d like a seat.

Coming home, using Wembley Central.

 

[SeagullinExile]

25 minutes from West Brompton for me!

Is Wembley Central definitely worth it. What are the factors? Distance to walk from our end of the ground? Number of trains?

Better chance of getting home mate, taxi rank at T Wells, so hard to get a cab in Crowborough, its a long walk up that hill !!

Assuming you stay to applaud the players, online people talk about a 45 to 90 minute total time to get onboard a Wembley Park train.

With a Sunday evening finish time, the entire crowd will just want to get home or to hotels.

Following the advice here from the 2019 semi, I’d rather make unhindered progress with a 15 minute walk.

10:29 from Chesterfield to St Pancras.

Hopefully the 20:00 return, after we win in normal time...
