Burton to Altrincham by train

How viable is it? I can get to Picadilly easy. It's just getting from Picadilly to your ground and back.

Any help would be appreciated guys

Thanks

Easy - get the tram from Piccadilly station - make sure it is going to Altrincham - takes about 20 minutes.  Then a 10 minute walk.

Much appreciated mate.

So after the game the trains are okay as well ? Worth getting a taxi or is it a nice 10 minute walk?

don't bother with a taxi, just ask when you get out of the station

Its a tram, like a light rail thing similar to the one in Nottingham. Follow signs at Piccadilly to Metrolink. Plenty of them too.

Its an easy walk from the station, signedposted. Moss Lane is the first left after you exit the station forecourt having turned left. Plenty pubs in town (although not quite in the same league as Burton)! The Bridge on Moss Lane is ok too, and the club bar will be open from early on, enter from Moss Lane just by the main stand, not from inside the ground, you probably wont be able to.
