Make the most of your matchday – Newcastle v Brentford, Saturday 7 February, 5.30pm
www.brentfordfc.com
Direct trains with LNER will not be running this weekend due to engineering works.
However, there are three alternative routes to get to the game:
- The first is to go from London Euston to Birmingham New Streetthen change for Cross Country services to Newcastle. This will take just under 5 hours.
- The second is to go from London St Pancras to Sheffield then to change there for hourly trains to Newcastle or change again at Doncaster if faster. This will take just over 4 hours.
- The third option is to take a 3-hour train from London Euston to Carlisle, then a 1-hour journey onwards to Newcastle.
To comfortably make kick-off from any of these departures, you will likely need to leave before midday.
Please note there are no trains back on the night of the game. The last train back is during the game itself, before the second half starts.
To get back after the game, you will need to travel the following morning. There are two options under 5 hours to ensure a faster journey back. Firstly, the CrossCountry service to Tamworth, where a quick change to London Euston is needed. Or, alternatively, changing twice by going via Doncaster, then Birmingham before a third train back to London Euston. These run hourly per respective route.
Upon arrival, St. James’ Park is only a ten-minute walk from the central Newcastle station, but St. James' Metro station is adjacent to the ground. This is on the Metro Yellow Line. Crowds can get busy here after the game, so we would advise walking in groups back to the city centre.
Please check the conditions of your ticket when booking to ensure your ticket is valid.
