London to MK train problems on Saturday

Postby StagsinLondon » Wed May 01, 2019 10:37 am

Just to let the Southern Stags know that there are major train problems happening on Saturday from Euston to MK only ! The best route without a long replacement bus journey is London ST PAN to Bedford stopping at Flitwick and then taxi to MK anybody wants to share and I’ll book a local firm ?

Any other solutions greatly received apart from driving !!

You can get the train from Bedford to Fenny Stratford which is only a mile from the ground if you don't want to pay for a cab.

I looked at that. It's a right chugger and takes an hour from Bedford. I'll get a taxi to somewhere near the ground.

off to Soho after the game, so this is causing a reet pain in the rear end.

Booked a taxi for after the game to take us straight to Bedford, should do the trick.

Gone for a 17:30 booking slot as should be off the pitch by then. :lol: :lol:

Soho will be full of drunk ex soldiers and sailors so you might trap.

I'm glad it only affects the London part, thankfully they're running just fine from Manchester to MK :)

I'm coming with 6. 3 regulars and 3 tourists. Get into Bedford train after you but could do a mini bus if that makes it more cost effective.
