No, it won't. I suggest you look again and check the details. Some of the journeys suggest walking from bank quay to central.

There is a tram stop at Old Trafford cricket ground (called Old Trafford so you can't miss it). When you come out Old Trafford is right in front you, about a mile away. You can get that back into town if you like - they'll be a bit of queue but it moves quite quickly most times - it didn't last year, which is why I suggested moving to another stop. If you've never done the tram before, just go to Old Trafford and back, it'll be fine.

Trying to get on at Trafford Bar is daft because the tram will already be full after Old Trafford. Get the tram in the other direction to Stretford then get off, cross over, and back on so you're on before it gets to Old Trafford.

If you go the other way (from the Quays) then get on at Salford Quays rather than Exchange Quay because Exchange Quay will be a lot busier.

The train from right outside the ground is the easiest way though.

Is anyone who went on the rattler last year not doing so this year ?

Has anyone e-mailed Northern Rail , Trans Pennine Express and East Midlands Trains to ask about extra coaches being put on to help out ??

good luck to everyone getting train on sat i was meant to be but thankfully got a lift of a mate now

IT IS A TRAIN TO/FROM MANCHESTER, 15 RAIL MILES!

Calm down people!!!!
