CastleBromVilla Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Bought two Super Off Peak returns with Chiltern from Moor Street. According to their website they'll be running extra trains from Snow Hill. Received tickets and they say from Birmingham Stations to Wembley Stadium, so is it possible to leave from either Moor Street or Snow Hill? Also, I don't know whether this is true but I've heard that if you catch the train to Wembley after 9.15am on the day of the final from Moor Street, it's direct to Wembley, and no change. When I booked online it said one change, at Gerrards Cross. Anyone else come across this? Your on the same train as me and quite a few others... what time does your's depart? To answer your questions... yes you can depart from either Moor Street or Snow Hill station in Birmingham and.. as far as i'm aware we will have to change once to get on a different line into Wembley Station. But if we don't.. hey-ho, even better! Not sure mate. Although I selected a time when I booked online, I think you can leave when you want because its off peak. Just checked my ticket aswell, no time on there. I want to get there with a bit of time to spare, take it all in like Yours change at Gerrards Cross too? 4 of us have got them tickets, we are getting the 9:13 train from moor st straight to marylebone, then onto wembley about 1ish When I booked it said change at Gerrards Cross :? Maybe we have different tickets? Just checked confirmation e-mail. Depart 10.43 B'ham Moor Street - 12.36 Gerrards Cross 12.48 Gerrards Cross - 13.01 Wembley Stadium Return 19.09 Wembley Stadium - 19.57 Princes Risborough 20.07 Princes Risborough 21.40 B'ham Moor Street Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b6bloke Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Just a warning if you are thinking of boarding at Moor Street, most times I have got that train I have had to stand all the way as they dont reserve seat, as it loads at Snow Hill get there first to get any chance of getting one. We have reserved a seat (poss a table) with Virgin to Euston leaving at 8:40 and gets there at 10:20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if like others have said it's an open ticket, I guess you can jump on any train (as long as there is room of course). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they all open tickets? seems everyone is going to be there at the same time and with the train only being able to take so many there will be a few pissed off people having to get the later ones though they have increased the service so all should be ok.

Im on that and i think there are changes mate. Just checked this and there are NO changes. The train companies (mainly Chiltern) have realised about the cup final and are doing straight through trains. Police will be at the stations apparently checking for booze etc. And the train stops at Wembley first and then Marylebone. Think I'll be staying on and going central for a bit as don't really being at Wembley so early! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
