Northern trains

[Disco_Pants93]

Is there anyone who would like a seat on a minibus leaving Billingham at 11 (ish) on Saturday? Returning from Sunderland 6pm. If so give me a shout/pm. We’ve got a couple of places left.

Minibus quote is steep like.
Id resigned myself to driving but i really dont want to have to.
I looked at the buses yest quickly but looked like they finish just after 5 and wouldnt be able to to get back (unless ya left match early)?

That's incredible if true!

Like most have said, we are totally neglected in this part of the north east. 1 hour to travel 25 miles on a train is a joke.

Train strikes for Preston game Oct 1st - whats the back up plan to get there and back then fellas?
Could this be the day for the first Teesside branch organised bus

@HarrogateMackem
Lengthy discussion about transport options with Northern Trains not running for Preston.

 

[Disco_Pants93]

Bus now full. If there’s any drop outs I’ll post in here in case anyone is stuck.

Bit of a long haul, but could break it up with a pint in Newcastle before getting the metro to Sunderland.

Get X10 from Middlesbrough , Stockton or Billingham. £10.90 explorer day ticket, valid on 99% of North East buses, and metro as well.

Just seen that, apparently not, well between Pelaw and South Hylton anyway, what a fook up. Explorer tickets are also valid on the Shield Ferry , is that running ?

New kind of low when we need to consider ferry’s to get to the football

Contingency plan needed, as I've been told the last bus back to H/pool is at 5:03pm.

Will do some checking.

I don't mind getting the bus up to Sunland, leaving H/pool 10:15, and arriving in Sunland at 11:35a.m (ish) but it means I'll be leaving the match at 4:45 pm to get to Park Lane, for the return journey to H/pool.
Hopefully we'll be 3 or 4 nowt up, by then.

Whenever I've looked before it requires a change at Dalton Park to get to Stockon or Middlesbrough. Absolute joke. Just checked go North east and I can't find any options

Bear in mind the X6 is usually a mini bus

Agreed.
Even with the trains not running, and many fans like our good selves, travelling to the game from outside of Sunderland, we'll still pull in a crowd of around 38,000, which imho, is absolutely fantastic.
