Reading away - Boxing Day

[RM-Taylor]

According to National Rail website, there is no trains whatsoever running to Reading on this day from anywhere in the country

 

[Simster]

Yes. Obviously.

It's BOXING DAY.

 

[RM-Taylor]

I thought the only day they didn't run was Christmas day. Pretty sure that I've been on a train before on Boxing day to see the Albion play.

They normally just run a special timetable which normally finishes by early evening.

 

[Simster]

Really? I've always assumed they never run on Boxing Day.

Went to the 3-0 defeat at the New Den under Wilkins on Boxing day and trains ran then.

Maybe its a new thing shrug:

You always had to drive on Boxing Day. From time to time, in particular areas, you get the occasional limited service.

Can we assume that a Boxing Day at the Amex would be 'quite interesting' in terms of parking...no wonder our Christmas fixtures are so crap.

 

[Joe Gatting's Dad]

Great Western do not usually run any Boxing Day trains, not even to and from Paddington.

[llugaes]

there's usually one train an hour from brighton to london via everywhere and one from east croydon to london bridge. some people i know went to millwall a few years back but they had to use new cross instead of bermondsey.

You can always get the National Express coach service from Brighton to Reading (Calcot). Change at Gatwick. £56.50 day return. And a taxi to and from the ground. Only £45 with a Coachcard discount.

Heathrow express runs to heathrow and a coach runs heathrow to Reading
