Who was it that was able to give the best and cheapest way to travel by train.
Can they please investigate for Sunday please?
I'm not much good at that sort of thing and if someone has the experience in that, could they help?
Thanks in advance

Oh Grimsby Grimsby
Whatever will be will be
You'll follow then faithfully
Oh Grimsby Grimsby


Tell me Mam me Mam

National rail strike likely to severely effect already reduced services.

Humberside TalkSport reckoned the beat bet was getting across to Lincoln and then train to King's Cross. But that was with driving to Lincoln, dunno if trains or buses across there also fit

I tried looking at trains from Grimsby for you but the only one arrives at Paddington at 2pm (ish) and is sold out. Plus you'd miss all the pree match singing and any delays ruins the whole day.

I've just taken a look for you, it's pretty dire going from Grimsby on the Sunday as it doesn't service Lincoln until early afternoon. There are trains to Doncaster starting at 10:33 with an arrival of 11:39 then you'd be straight down to King's Cross 11:57 to 13:40 so cutting it fine.

It may not be viable for you but if you can get a lift or drive to one of Doncaster or Newark then you'll be able to get down within good time. Unfortunately it's not ideal for those wanting go by Train

If you can get to Sheffield or Chesterfield you can still get tickets to St Pancras and then to Stratford International.

My Train is the 8.23 from Sheffield arriving 11.10 St Pancras.        (still available)

Tickets still available for 9.26            ''   ''      12.11   ''   ''

If there is a strike I will drive from Hillsborough with a few spare seats available.

Open return with Senior Railcard is  £57.40.
