| Now don't think that I am counting my chickens but if anyone is interested, Virgin Trains are doing a very good deal on advanced bookings for Challenge cup final day 29/08/09. The only drawback being that you would have to travel from Runcorn railway station at 06.03am but the return is to Bank Quay, basically you need to buy two singles. The details are:
The 06.03am Runcorn to London Euston train a single will cost £8.00.
Returning on the 7.00pm London Euston to Warrington Bank Quay train a single is £11.00.
I know the times make this a long day but it gives plenty of time in London for beer and for £19.00 its worth taking the risk!
Check it out at national rail enquiries

The trains are a nightmare - its a typical bank holiday weekend.
There aren't any direct trains from Runcorn or Bank Quay. It also takes over 4 1/2 hours each way. Compare this to a normal weekday journey of 1 hr 40mins.
I for one wont be going on the train.

It kicks off at 2:30pm.
Half time 3:10pm
Second half 3:25pm
Full time 4:05pm
Now unless they will take 2 hours 30 to parade the trophy.
With a 4:05 finish, leaving the ground at 4:30, you could easily be back at Euston by possibly 5:30- 6pm at the latest.

I'm sure it will. However i don't wish to entertain that terrible thought*.
*[size=42assuming it is a Saints vs Wire final. If it is Hudds vs Wire, i'll back Wire.[/size
