We risk going off topic here, but Cross Country and TransPennine must be the worst for overcrowding. Sheffield certainly is in the dark ages with its railway. We lost the woodhead tunnel and the electrified line. Electrification into Sheffield seems to depend on HS2 which is edging further away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very unlikely, last season I had 460 points and only got a ticket when Plymouth released 300 extra at short notice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry no , it is unfortunatley illegal and as one coach found out at Bolton can cause issues. But we will be stopping at Cribbs Causeway- Bristol (Redwood farm Pub) on the way down for about 1.5 hours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanharper Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 It's always been said to be illegal, but I've travelled on hundreds of football coaches over the years and although they always say "police could turn us back if they find any alcohol on board" I've never, ever been on one that's been searched by the coppers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
