parisvilla Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 no underground and shite weather http://news.bbc.co.uk/weather/forecast/2695?&search=wembley&itemsPerPage=10®ion=world&area=Wembley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woody_ntfc Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Nice, so no service form Euston Square to Wembley, surely this isn't right. All trains from Manc and some from Brum end up at Euston, and that leaflet the transport police issued told everyone to from Euston Square to Wembley Park.

AndyClarke Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Check it up on your specific route on the journey planner because some of the engineering work is on Saturday only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just get the London Overground service to Wembley Central and walk to the stadium. It usually leaves from platform 9 every 20 mins and takes around 20 mins also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CastleBromVilla Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 ^ agreed re: Transport police - absolute rocket polishers the lot of them. Has anyone else got a ticket from Moor Street for Sunday morning? As the latest timetable on the Chiltern website says that there are no trains stopping at Moor Street early that morning, it appears they are only going from Snow Hill and not stopping at MS according to the timetable. Anyone aware of this? Would I be able to hop on at Snow Hill instead with my ticket? Chiltern website also states that no alcohol will be allowed on the trains :cry: Your ticket should say Birmingham Stations, so you can go from either Moor Street or Snow Hill. I booked for Moor Street but the trains go to Snow Hill first, so you've got a better chance of getting on if you go Snow Hill, which is what i'll be doing. Mind you, trains will probably be rammed anyway when they arrive at Snow Hill. At least no changes and direct to Wembley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMB Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 I need to catch a tube from Paddington to Wembley... am I likely to be affected by tubes not running in certain areas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyClarke Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Have a look at the tfl journey planner and the engineering works underground map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasing_hamburg Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 I need to catch a tube from Paddington to Wembley... am I likely to be affected by tubes not running in certain areas?

It's just bizarre they have done this when the transport police etc have said to do it that way. It also now means Watford Junction will be heaving if all the mancs are changing there.

AndyClarke Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 To be fair, there are far more important things happening in London than a football match. Closing the underground in the week would cause chaos, not like it is exactly difficult to get to the ground on the Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbcuk Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 One of my mates last night told me there was no trains going from moor st, only at 10:43 on the sunday and checked there website and it says that and on the updated timetable, so is everyone now going from snow hill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cillit_Bouma Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Does anyone know if there are still train tickets left, going from Snow Hill to Wembley? Should be one hell of an atmosphere on them trains! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paddy Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Any idea of where would be good to park as we're going to drive most of the way? Presumably quite a way away and get tube or train? Maybe even High Wycombe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
