Anyone help me out and advise me on getting the train on Friday, always drove but thought I would get the train this year! Which station to and from, how long the walk is etc... Thanks in advance

Ps. I cannot wait for Friday! Hope it's a typically brutal encounter!

i usually get the train...i usually get on the 16:27 train from bank quay, but there are also the 17:14 and the 17:27 aswell

Trains back to Bank Quay, 22.23 - 10 mins journey
22.36 - 10 mins
23.14 - 11 mins.
Fare £5.50 but you'll probably have to book in advance of Friday. Best to check on that!

The return service is 2257.

As soon as you come out of Wigan North western station, cross the road as it is easier to do it here. Turn left under the railway bridge. Follow the main road away from the town centre.

After 10 mins you go over a canal bridge. On the other side turn right onto the tow path, past the back of B&Q and you will come to the stadium. You will see the floodlights miles away and there will be plenty of other walkers.

should take around 15-20 mins from the station.
