All aboard for our first rail excursion.

Suggested by Lyn Lockley and thought by many to be a great idea, this date was chosen before Christmas and before we realised it was 4th round of the cup day and until tonight Bristol City were still in it.

So the plan is leave Wolverhampton on the 5:25 train to Oakengates which should arrive just before 6, go drinking in the Crown catching the 20:07 back as far as Shifnal, where we go into the White Heart pub. We then leave on the 21:13 to Codsall where we drink in the Station bar for an hour before catching the train back to the Great Western arriving at 22:37

The DDCWWFCSC will buy the train tickets if you book them EARLY. That is by next Tuesday at the latest please. I’ll probably stop in the Premier Inn opposite the Western if anyone else is doing so let me know that too.

We can arrange for some food in the Crown but will need some idea of numbers so an early response from you will only assist us in that.

More the merrier – hope you can make it

Cheers Coxy
