With the opening of the railway station planned for next year just wondered if it would
be logistically possible to run special trains to some away games.
I am lucky to be of an age to remember the great times in the 60s to have travelled
many times on the Sky Blue Special and remember what a great time we all had.
A train carrying 400 passengers would take 8 coaches or up to 180-200 cars off the road. Fans could park at the ricoh jump on the train and away.
Not all games would be viable (station too far from the ground etc) but some are only minutes walk away.
