Grand Final transport Info

[Blackadder]

Early days I know, but currently there are 3 extra trains heading to Sydney for the grand final (and for the return on stand by if needed), keep in mind these trains will be coming from Newc so could have to deal with the bogan elements.
As it currently stands the three trains dep Gosford @ 1435, 1505 & 1535 and will be stopping
Woy Woy,Hornsby,Epping,Strathfield,Central.

BA mate are there any earlier ones as Im sure most of the boys will want a FEW  good hours on the way up from Central

I think we're looking at the 11.50am and the next one after that tbh

So far just the normal services before hand, these are just some additionals that have been slotted in so far/

. gee a special train leaving gosford @ 3:35pm, you'd be lucky to even make centrtal before kick-off

. thanks cityrail very helpful

Blackadder, can you inform them that they have put the 'specials' at the wrong time! No point having extra trains and carriages if the bulk of people are going down from 11.50am!

If you need me to call whoever is in charge of that, PM me their number and I'll have a chat to them.

A special train at 3.35pm they're having a laugh surely?

The bulk of people I would hope would still be the bulk of people who make up Mariners crowds: families. Families would be catching a later train than 11:50.

CityRail probably haven't been told/haven't bothered to read that kickoff has changed from 6 to 5. I wonder if they know that the game might not be over by 7 and might need to hold the trains coming back. Between the organisational skills of the FFA and CityRail, I feel really confident that the day will go off without a hitch

aren't they doing a FANTASTIC job!

 

[Blackadder]

Taking the guess as mentioned they haven't been advised of the changes, also with the additional trains starting from Newc this could be subject to change I am guessing.

Since when does the Coast start at Gosford.

That's shit, it starts in terms of trains etc at Wyong so lets start the run from there so we don't have bogans on our train. 

Where is the Minister for the Central Coast - can't he do something except talk about it surely Belinda speaks to her husband or then again who knows.

 

[Blackadder]

Train times from Wyong are...1415,1445,1515, strangely enough these trains start out of Gosford as running empty to Newc, before commencing.
Cityrail logic..got to love it.

Hi guys,

First post here. I would become a Marinator myself but I really, really, hate where you guys all sit!

Anyway, when I purchased tickets yesterday at Ticketek, I heard a few people mention that you guys were organising buses from Gosford to the game and back.

Any truth to this rumor? If so, can non-Marinators come? There is myself, and two more that would prefer to get the bus rather than rely on CityRail.

If it is possible, how do I confirm a spot? How much for the trip?

Thanks,

Bithye

You can be a Marinator and stand or sit anywhere Bithye ... that's no excuse. Welcome though!

The Marinators are not organising buses. Our transport of choice will be the trains - makes the pub crawl easier!  ;D

The Marinators Club are not organising buses - only game tickets for their members.

We heard that Ticketek at the CCLC were organising buses along with their ticket sales.  Others may be organising busess - if anyone hears post it here.

I really did not know this! Where can my brother and I sign up to become Marinators!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the welcome, should have really come here ages ago given we've been coming to home games for the three years the club has been here!

The buses? Are they real or was it just a rumor?

We are both already members of the Central Coast Leagues Club! Does this mean we are Marinators already?

Closet Marinators, who didn't even know it?!?

Is there any truth in the rumour about public transport being free for game ticket holders, or was that a dream I had?
