Title: could GWR offer cheap travel 28 Jan/5th weekends Post by: infoman on January 21, 2023, 10:17:27 in connection with the Green football weekend
taking place on the 4th February weekend and some clubs are doing this on 28 february weekend Some clubs are doing free coach travel or discounted costs to away games. This would for the local fares from Cardiff Swindon Cheltenham(GWR trains only) and Taunton(GWR trains only) and the stations in between to parson street.

I have 4 friends coming up from Plymouth for England v Scotland, needless to say in one car as 4 rail fares would have been far more expensive.

Those weekends will be full at normal prices.
TOCs have offers all around the remaining dates at the moment.
