Hello,

I am not one for using trains but I want to get my train tickets for the trip to Wembley.

Can anyone help me as they are coming out at about £92 open return for 2 adults. (£46.00 each)

Depart Sun 2 April around 11:00/11:30 am

Ideally would like to travel from Nuneaton or Rugby if the prices are a lot cheaper. I've tried train websites but when I see people banding they paid £15.00-£30 return I want to try and get to these prices

Please help!

Rugby may be easier, as it is on the Euston route.

Have a look online on virgintrains.co.uk

Some single tickets were coming out at around £6-£9.

Go for two singles. Could be much cheaper.

Just looking at this mate - I might go for these. What do you do when you get to Euston station, buy a tube ticket?

Nuneaton - London Euston (single)

London Euston - Nuneaton

You can use contactless cards on the tube. Works out cheaper than a travelcard - depending on how many journeys you will be taking

I take it you buy contactless cards from the station on the day?

Rugby - LDN Euston - 11:04 - £14.00 2 adults

LDN Euston - Rugby - 20:18 - £18.00 2 adults

Your tube cost will be nearly as expensive as the train fare. Use contactless cheaper than buying a travel pass.

How do I do this and where do I get contactless from?

Cheers Skybluesam66 Is that on the day?

skybluesam66 · Feb 8, 2017

yes - just scan your bank card or phone on the touchpad as you go through the barrier

Ian1779 · Feb 8, 2017

Not sure where people's location are but if they live near Wellingborough/Kettering the line down there is cheap.

Just got a return from Wellingborough - St Pancras plus tube for £32.

No. I mean if you have Contactless on your cashpoint card you just place on the "touch in" yellow circle as you enter the barrier and "touch out" when you exit at the barrier. Your bank account is debited automatically

Don't worry mate, I wouldn't have known you can use the tube and bus i London like this until someone told me.

I work in London so buy advance tickets for particular trains and use contactless on the tube/bus - works out cheaper that way.

Get the Metropolitan Line from Euston Square to Wembley Park (turn right out of Euston, 5 minute walk to Euston Square).

Or get the Overground from Euston to Wembley Central

Check the Transport for London website nearer the time (currently only goes up to March for planned works). There is also Jubilee line too.

I was hoping you could meet us and hold our hands through the station to stop us getting lost.

Would doubt it that was good old British Rail

OffenhamSkyBlue · Feb 8, 2017

Why aren't there any direct trains from Warwick Parkway to Wembley Stadium??? Gotta go into Marylebone and back out again! How short-sighted can you get?!

ceetee · Feb 8, 2017

I went to Wembley a couple of years ago on an experience trip.

it was a lot cheaper to change at High Wycombe than go into Marylebone and come back out
