Directions by Train
There
is no railway station in Fleetwood itself. The closest is at Poulton-le-Fylde,
which is just over five miles away. However it more likely that fans
will head to Blackpool North station which is around seven miles away. A
taxi from the station to Fleetwood will cost you the best part of
£20, Buses from Blackpool to Fleetwood
are also available. Service numbers 1 and 14, run from Blackpool. To
catch the number 14 bus, come out of Blackpool North Station, and walk
up Talbot Road, cross the road at the Station Pub and then walk down to
the bus stop outside Home Bargains. The bus is on the hour and then
every 10 minutes to Fleetwood. To catch the number 1 bus, head for the
Promenade. At the North Pier you will see the tram stop, at the end of
the tram shelter there is a bus stop for the line 1 which also goes to
Fleetwood. Line 1
is
12 minutes past the hour and every 20 minutes.
