Train travel

Post by knotty514 »

I have secured two tickets for the air show - I can't wait for it now!!

Slight dilemma - given the reports on previous traffic nightmares, I have decided to travel by train to the show. Now I have 3 options:

1) Park at Shifnal train station and get the train to Cosford.
2) Park at Telford train station and get the train to Cosford.
3) Get the train from Stoke to Wolverhampton, then on to Cosford - but, given it's on a Sunday, the earliest train from Stoke doesn't really help me.

So, is it easy from Telford or Shifnal? Or will traffic around these parts be just as bad? Any thoughts/ideas?

Cheers

Chris

Telford or Shifnal will be fine but I would just check that the trains actually stop there seeing as it's a Sunday, you already may know the answer to this!

I'd go with Telford for shifnal you've gotta get off at the junction for the show which could see you in traffic, Telford far enough away not to be affected by this.
