Hardly class a 6am train as peak time [emoji849]
It very much is peak - your aiming to arrive at 9am - thats peak commuter periods
I can do London from here for circa £150 - £200 arrive before 9.30. After 9.30 arrival that same ticket is usualy under £20 And I can go first class for not much more quite often
£19 each thats why

Even with the earliest train from up here it doesn’t get you there until mid morning anyway and that’s without any delays [emoji849] not much use if you can only spare 1 day having to travel the day before and come back the day after, 4 of us in a car for the price of a tank of fuel, yes it will be an early start but you can stop where or when you want or change route if there’s a problem and please ourselves what time we come back

Won’t be much cheaper in the NEC
If 4 can share a car your probably better off that way - long day though with that driving !
But you could have traveled after work Monday I guess and returned late on the Tuesday and still only been away from work the one day
Cheap hotel for the Monday night would be lower cost than the peak time travel rip off

Apparently there’s a weatherspoons that will be open for breakfast, I’ve never ate at a weatherspoons so can’t comment on quality but they’re not renowned for being expensive .

Genuinely look forward to seeing as many of you as possible and going home Wednesday night knackered...…..
Safe journeys

Public Transport just a con, Diesel is the same price peak or off peak...
Car it is & always will be for us lads.

Just out of curiosity, will LAMMA continue to be a “dry” show now it’s at the NEC?

Cheapest time to travel on the train is after 9am, if you're driving be aware of potential delays on the m6 between jnc 19 and 16. We are going weds £20 return Crewe to bhm international and a 15 mins undercover walk into the NEC, done it many times
Would not hurry to get there doors dont open till 8 30 am ,or you all may know that ,just had a rep tell us that , sounds like a pint or two tonight and lie in in the morning
