That was stressful couldn’t recall password, went for reset, email didn’t arrive, rang ticket office twice before reset arrived in my inbox, then the bank card went to that checking option which required another Password couldn’t remember, used another card, then the web page timed out, logged back in and luckily the 2 tickets were still in the basket. No wonder bald and high blood pressure. 😂

We’re getting the train from Brig if you fancy it? Meet in the Bay Horse for a quick flyer

What is brig?

Bamber Bridge 

Train runs from Blackpool South, through Lytham, Preston, Bamber Bridge, Blackburn to Accrington every hour 

Assume anyone training from Bolton will either change at Preston or Blackburn and be on the same train? 

Only small trains, one every hour will be rammed out

Aye, I got that direct to Burnley from Salford Crescent, it also picks up at Walkden & Atherton, & is quite a nice ride stopping at places like Littleboro & Todmorden, I think even going into Yarkshire at one point.

Just had a look, trains leave Brig at 12.07 or 13.07, take 20 odd minutes to get into Accy

Saying that, it’s probably cheaper and quicker to get a minibus from Euxton. Bay Horse at 12, leave at half past, in Accy for 1pm 👍🏻

I’d be ok for the minibus but need to be back by 6.30 as out for wife’s birthday meal at 7.30. If not I’ll just drive over myself.

Going down to Bolton for this one. Last time I went to Blackburn for a football match we all tried getting on at Bromley X. It was only JayC's intervention, shifting people out of the way that we managed to get on.
If all trains are meeting at Blackburn from West and South then the Blackburn-Accrington train is going to be cosy as fuck.

How much is a minibus from Blackburn into Accy? 5.5 miles
