Archive:Events/Bletchley Blitznight 2010

There's a bunch of Hackspacers and hangers-on headed to Bletchley Park on November 6th, to spend the afternoon at the National Museum of Computing, and then watch the "Blitznight" fireworks display in the evening before getting a lift or late train back to London.

General information about Bletchley Park is at http://www.bletchleypark.org.uk/content/museum1.rhtm and there's details of the fireworks event at http://www.bletchleypark.org.uk/calendar/event_detail.rhtm?cat=*&recID=616097

Trains

10:13 from Euston, arrives Bletchley at 10:49

10:43 from Euston, arrives Bletchley at 11:25 (change at Milton Keynes). If you're sure you'll be travelling with the group and you don't have a railcard, it may be useful to buy a GroupSave ticket between four Hackspacers - you have to travel on the same trip, but it's 50% of the cost of individual. Meet up at 10:20 under the Euston departure boards if you want to try for that...

There's a direct service from Clapham Junction too - but it's much slower (1:16 compared to 0:36 from Euston) - leaves at 38 mins past each hour.

Coming back to London, direct trains to Euston leave Bletchley at 20:21, 20:55, 21:38, 23:16 and the last train (in case you get 'stuck' in the pub) is 23:51
