Extra train service for fans heading home from Justin Timberlake’s Manchester gig

TransPennine Express (TPE) will run an extra late-night service between Manchester and Liverpool for Justin Timberlake fans wanting to take back the night and enjoy every moment of the show without worrying about their journey home.

To ensure customers don't miss a beat, a special service will depart Manchester Victoria at 12:23am on Friday 9 August after the pop star performs at his Thursday night gig held at Co-op Live Arena.

This train will stop at Newton-le-Willows and Lea Green before arriving at Liverpool Lime Street at 1:02am.

Kathryn O’Brien, Customer Experience & Transformation Director at TransPennine Express, said: “We are pleased to be able to offer this extra service to help get fans home after enjoying the concert.

“We’re asking our customers to plan ahead and check before they travel – and of course remember to Rock Your Body.”
