Looks like it'll need to be train travel to Dumfries next week. I know we need to go to Carlisle then to Dumfries. Anyone know how much this is roughly?

Checked it on the scot rail app - bit pricey I thought. Might be other options though with virgin?

At the moment you can get a return from Haymarket to Carlisle for £19.90 then £6 return from Carlisle - Dumfries.

Have you looked at going by bus? Not too much longer and possibly cheaper

Try looking at Edinburgh to Glasgow to Dumfries. I don't know if it would be any cheaper, but it's an alternative route.

Going by your name I take it you are from Dunbar.

East Lothian Hibs leaving Haddington at 10.05 and Tranent at 10.30.

Booked into a boozer which does a good spread when we go down.

Straight back after the game.

£10 for members, £12 for non members.

Geeza shout if you are interested.

Good point, but our bus would be down in time for the whole of the Man U game.

The Carlisle to Dumfries train gets you into Dumfries at 2.59

Edit. There's an earlier one as long as you get the 10.12 from Waverley to Carlisle

I just thought I'd point it out as some will be leaving Edi earlier than others.
