Hi All

Due to my partner's working commitments it looks like we will be moving
from
London to the Stafford area

Has anyone experience of commuting from Stafford to EUS ? Needing to
arrive
into EUS about 0900 and leaving at 1700 ish, chances of getting seats,
frequency of delays etc etc ?

Cheers

All the way from Stafford to London every day! Rather you than me!

A lad I know does it from Crewe to London each day. As you said -
rather him than me although an hour and 16 minutes isn't that bad. It
can take that on a bad day from South Manchester to Wigan. I suppose
it depends on what the journeys are at either end.

I'm looking at a 5-10 minute walk at the Stafford end, 1h30 journey ish, 5
minute walk to KX.

Whenever I have got an early train from Manchester Piccadily, it seems to
have considerable slack and arrives 10 - 15 mins early in to EUS. Would
this ever happen from Stafford ?
