Dragonball 2013 train times

Hi folks,

To avoid it being lost in the swamp of posts in the main DB13 thread I thought I should post in here the various train timings we are working to. You can ask sensible questions in here, but keep all chit chat to the main DB13 thread.

Friday 17th May

Taking 2 trains from Eurotunnel Folkestone as they cannot fit us all on one train on the lower deck.

First train is at

7.20am (so have to get at Eurotunnel by 6.50am for check-in)

second train is at

7.50am (so have to be at Eurotunnel by 7.20am)

The second train should arrive in Calais by 9.30am (France time). We will all stop at the Total petrol station here

And I plan on leaving the petrol station at exactly 10am (France time).

Sunday 19th May

taking 2 trains from Calais.

First train is at

4.20pm (France time)

second train is at

4.50pm (France time).

Second train will arrive back in the UK at 4.30pm (UK Time)

You will be allocated a time for each train, currently it looks like this

I believe Tracey has sold her space to Craig so will update that once I have the confirmed details.

branners me and andy will not be coming home on the 19/05/2013 16:20

as we are going to holland amsterdam

so if 2 people wanted to take our time instead of the 16:50

Cheers John, will the times be on our tickets?

I will update the first post, you wont be issued with tickets. You just roll up to the gates, it should recognise your registration number and let you through. If not then you use the booking number that will be sent to you later this week. Its all electronic.

Will there be two seperate convoys from Ashford ?

Believe this is the case for Alex Macrae also.

Will there be two seperate convoys from Ashford ?

Not sure on that one. I'm going to suggest everybody leaves Ashford travelodge at the same time just in case they decide to book us all on the same train. With Eurotunnel you never quite know what to expect when you pull up. Either way we will wait until 10am France time at the petrol station on the other side so if people are on a later train I wont go without them.

Does that list include passengers!? Thought it was just drivers!?

I am a passenger in Alex Macraes car.

Lol, turns out there are 2 Chris Baileys going. Silverhaze is the other one and they are on the later train.

The list doesnt include passengers. I'm not tracking passengers at all as that would drive me bonkers.

I'd think that would be best too if we left all together. Only a 30 min wait at the Eurotunnel car park, where we get far too excited anyway!!

Just have to make sure that everyone is alert on the day to keep everyone together as close as possible. Though would highly recommend everyone sets the sat nav first thing incase you lose the convoy in the morning as this can easily be done.

Tidied the thread up, if we could keep this for important questions please

Good work John this must be a nightmare to organise ......getting giddy now woot woot

Cheers

This list still the same John ?

Nope.

Oh

I'd be more useful than that, but I've not idea what Mr Slutters real name is. If you do, then swap it for me and Bernard.

Isn't his name John Hudd

few changes

Tracey dropped out so Craig got her slot, then she dropped back in and has a different time slot and reference now.

Slutters (adam) gave his tickets to Pete and Burna

And Tyson is dropping out so that will change.

Apart from those the times are still the same.

You should all have had your unique booking reference sent to you by Steve. Make sure you have that with you as if it cannot recognise your plates then thats your way in.

As I bought Dean's ticket… I presume Fitz and I are on the 7:20 as Mr Dean Tracey?

We also don't have a booking reference B-Dog, I have dropped Ellis an email about a few things we are missing though!

Yep, I had that one already changed with Eurotunnel so yes you are on the same reference and the same time

Bump!!

Remember which trains you are on! Follow the coach lanes, use all the lanes to book in!! When you get out in France you'll see a large petrol station, pull over there! (IIRC it's a Total Station).
