LONDON, August 10 /PRNewswire/ --
ATTN: North West Media
Rugby League fans intending to support Warrington Wolves at Wembley on
Saturday 29 August are advised not to travel to the game with Virgin Trains.
Network Rail will be carrying out work in the Crewe and Rugby areas and
rail journeys between the north-west and London Euston will be severely
disrupted in both directions on Saturday 29, Sunday 30, and the morning of
Monday 31 August.
There will be no direct train services, journey times will be
considerably longer than usual, and there is no guarantee that anyone
travelling with Virgin Trains will arrive in time for the start of the match.
Fans are advised to make other travel arrangements, and can check
alternative routes using other train operators by visiting
http://www.nationalrail.co.uk or calling 44(0)8457-48-49-50, though these
routes will take longer than the usual direct Virgin services. Charter
train and coach travel can also be organised through Warrington Wolves by
calling 44-(0)871-220-0260 or visiting the Wolfware shop at the Halliwell
Jones Stadium.
