Train Station to the ground : Sat Aug 02, 2014 6:37 am  

Hi All,
My friends and I are coming over on the train on Saturday and we would like to know how far it is from the station to your ground? Are there any recommended Pubs along the way.

Thanks FB

If you're coming from Warrington bank quay then get off at lea green and you could walk to the glass horse which is on the route to the ground. Prob a 10-15min walk. That's the journey I make every saints game

If you don't fancy the walk then taxi to the town centre is another option for you

'Parking for Langtree Park' thread at top of page has more info.

Taxi to The George, rugby pub. £1 a man from St Helens Junction if car full and a 100 yard walk if arriving St helens central.

Hopefully mix of Saints, Leeds and Wire in from 10am

Will the George be serving food on Saturday?

Just pies mate. Was thinking of a BBQ but with no guarantee of numbers or good weather pies it is.

It's a semi final, liquid lunch

I like your style my friend, are you sure your not a Wire, there has got to be some Primrose & Blue somewhere in your lineage.

Heads up there is no train from bank quay to st Helens central on Saturday train terminates at wigan and they are putting buses on from there which is a 40 min journey better to just get bus from warrington. this is only a 30 min journey.

There's never a train from Warrington Bank Quay to St Helens Central is there? They go to St Helens Junction.

Correct, need to change at Wigan. Most trains from Wigan replaced by buses on Saturday.
