Mayfair Travel are doing a day return by train to wembley for anyone interested,standard £55 or 1st class £69.

Are these the specials that the club are running? Thought they were £41...

The chartered club ones are £51 IIRC. Either way, it's only £27 ont' coach.

might get mega bus and stay over for a night

Not sure,called the mayfair express direct to wembley stadium.

Remember....ALL rail travel (charter/club/normal) will be affected by west coast engineering works that weekend. Expect a big detour around Manchester.

Chiltern Railways have no trains running on that line that weekend, bus replacement services but none covering Wembley Stadium station. How are Mayfair running a train on a line that is supposedly closed?

The club one is £56.50 if Im not mistaken. They say on the site that due to work on the line, that this is the only direct train from Wigan. Don't know if it's the same train as Mayfair

Trans from wigan to london via man picc around 3 to 3 and a half hours,according to the trainline.com.

with all the uncertainty of whether on not the train will actually get there along all the closed lines...coach seems best option

we are on the 8.15 from Piccadilly £52 each. gets in Euston at 10.20

Wembley Stadium Station is closed from 21st to 27th August (inclusive), so anyone going by rail might be seeing some unplanned bus travel as well (unless they go in to Euston and then use the Metro line underground out to Wembley Park - That's still open.
