Walsall by train.

[DTS]

My usually reliable seat booker (Dad of DtS) has not really come up trumps with tickets for Walsall with seats costing £37.50 from London or something similar each.

Not that I dont trust the old boy but anyone else found a cheaper way to do it.

Cheers

Ken, you should be able to get a return to Birmingham for £23.50. A return to Walsall is then only £2.80.

Two singles mate, Southend Vic - Walsall £13.50 each way, saving you £10, at least 3 pints.

From Brighton £13.00 each way.

Thanks MK - Can I ask where are you finding these prices. There could be a job up for grabs a personal travel finder for DtS. Its a very rewarding job I will have you know.

Dad of DtS has now delivered tickets for £23.50 each - I think it was the fear of losing his job as seat booker that did it.

Thanks Mk & YB - Rep coming your way.

DtS, beware if ever using thetrainline.com it is often cheaper if you book 2 singles than the returns. I did this for getting to Sheff Weds last season & I think I saved about 75% on the quoted return price!

yep. always click the "singles" option and check out the prices, i pretty much do that every time i go to manchester to the gf's. also as YB said if you split your journey it can also work out a lot cheaper

Thanks for your help all.

I was looking for the single fares, but from London to Bescot if you book to Birmingham and buy on to Bescot, much cheaper.

Moral of the story for DtS book early don't leave it a couple of weeks before the match or your PA/old man gets confused and can't cope (even though he's top of the Prediction League!!!!)
