    Altrincham to Manchester City FC

    I didnt mean ardwick international, since when is manchester city near a eurostar station lol. Yes ashburys has more trains than ardwick, ashburys is also nearer the football ground. Lets just see what pattern the Metrolink has in 2012 first.

    Live departure boards

    There are still many well used stations that could do with these systems being installed, Helsby, Frodsham, Runcorn East, Knighton and Gobowen (a modern 1). Stations between Crewe and Shrewsbury that dont have them. Welshpool <- why doesnt this station have 1? Ince and Elton, And Stanlow...

    Altrincham to Manchester City FC

    every 6 minutes peak time, 12 minutes off peak it says on the website, i presume that is proposed. I also presume Altrincham trams will alternate to Bury and Droylesden, if you think a door to door service is possible.

    Altrincham to Manchester City FC

    In spring 2012, the metrolink to Droylesden will open. My question is which way will be quicker. From Altrincham. 1. Train to Manchester piccadilly via Stockport, then Metro to sportcity. 2. Train to Stockport, then wait for a service that stops at Ardwick then walk to Eastlands. 3...

    welshpool station

    The latest picture on the sarpa website on thie news page shows a lot of work is goin on there, looks like the old track is being renewed aswell, well its not there in the picture. Just need a station for montgommery, they had 1 in the past, would probably be a better passing point aswell:)

    Aber hourly service,warning.

    surely, any extra trains on the Cambrian to Aber will be an improvement. As long as there is a 16.01 and an 18.01 departure from welshpool, thats the busy times in the evening back to shrewsbury.

    Do people stay away from football matches when bashing?

    As a Man city fan myself, I advise you to avoid any Manc to Wigan line after the match. But I dont know who else is playing that weekend, you might come across some angry Stockport fans that are a relegation possibility atm. theres oldham, bury, rochdale, fc united and bolton fans possibly...

    Church Stretton/Craven Arms

    Cheers, I just remembered that Gobowen has a TV screen in the window showing departures, unless that changed or due to be changed. And Knighton has a TV screen on Platform 1, Do any other stations on the HOW line have departure boards, or do they all have that speaker phone thing, and is it...
