      Anyone heard anything about a charter train, not seen any advert myself but people keep telling me one is running.

        Today’s WEP are running an article quoting WAFC, that because of engineering works they are advising fans not to use trains to travel to and from Wembley.

        Before we decided to concentrate on just coaches, we looked into chartering our own train and contacted National Train Charter Ltd.
        I had been chasing them for over a week to try and get a costing but they kept telling me their delay in replying to me was because of engineering scheduling and planning over that weekend.

        This morning I recieved an email from them which I have copied.

        Dear ******

        Thank you for your enquiry, I am sorry for not replying sooner.

        I am afraid that due to the train being on a Saturday and the late kick-off time it is impossible to get the passengers back to Wigan due to NR engineering works. Therefore on this occasion we will not be in a position to offer you a service.

        If we can be of assistance in the future please do not hesitate to contact us.

        Regards

        I think that this email and the article in the WEP means that there will be no special trains running on the day.
