I’ve got a free ticket going spare for today if anyone wants it, mate who was coming with me is ill. DM me if needed.

Downside is im going by train so this does depend on me getting there…

Blustery mate, but no rain.

The Red Robin

Snow on the midlands isn’t going to help trains

Any alternative routes possible by train or coach from Birmingham?

There’s an option to get a bus from Stafford to Telford and then another one to Shrewsbury from there. Similar options from Wolverhampton (again via Telford I think but double check) but obviously these are quite slow (Stafford via Telford seems to be 2 hours plus)

Train is 75 minutes on a normal service.

Stopped snowing here in Nottingham about an hour ago - I was driving to the game anyway fortunately 

Croydon

Delays on trains from Birmingham til midday apparently

Is anyone driving through Hereford en route to the game? @big in brasov and I  are marooned here, with no trains for hours and his car not likely to last the journey!

Anybody getting to the station and not wanting to sod around, there are plenty of taxis.
Station to ground otherwise is a pain.

Train via Crewe seems best bet

Never ceases to amaze me how ill equipped this country is to deal with any change in the weather.

You think with the high prices of train tickets there would be some decent infrastructure in place.

Is this the so called "public transport" that we are constantly told we have to use otherwise we are killing the planet if we use our cars.

Get proper infrastructure in place with buses & trains running more frequently then the public might change over.

A tree on the line is a pretty valid reason for the problems

How long does it take to move, all day? No reason for anything after midday to be delayed through there.

They have to remove a tree from a remote location and check the track and embankment etc for any damage. It's not a quick job

In Crewe. Anyone need a taxi with us?

Croydon

Anyone fancy sharing a cab from Brum?

It's not one tree. There are trees down all over the rail network, it was a major storm last night
