£30 ish,its like Sutton or Solihull to town.
It's not all that clear on the National Rail website, but it appears that there may be a rail replacement bus service between Preston and Manchester via Horwich every weekend, unless they've drawn a bus in the wrong place on their map. See links below. I hope someone can tell me I'm wrong! I can't see a bus service coping with a football crowd.http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/service_disruptions/182896.aspxhttp://www.nationalrail.co.uk/static/documents/maps/Man%20Pre%20via%20Salford%20C.pdfIncidentally, it seems that there's a rail replacement bus for the last part of the route to Hull (about an hour) on Easter Saturday, the day we play there.
