Which also happens to be Pearl Harbour day,

Bristol City followers will be heading to Portsmouth for a Championship football match.

The game is SOLD OUT for Bristol City followers,with over 2,000 away fans heading to the game.

When Bristol City played Portsmouth in an FA Cup match back January 2009,a return HST▸ (High Speed Train (Inter City class 43 125 units)) football special was arranged.

Not sure if IET▸ (Intercity Express Train - replacement for HSTs (manufactured by Hitachi in Kobe, Japan))'s are passed to go to Portsmouth.
