Training ground? Or train in ground?

There's a lot of fans who would tick off 2 boxes with a trip to this ground!

One of the Crystal Palace owners, Jeremy Hosking is a millionaire who has quite a collection of (running) steam trains. I believe they do day trips in them.

Anyway for the last game of the season (Southampton away), there is a trip for supporters to travel from London to Southampton and back on one of his old steam trains!! Light refreshments on the train down, and dinner with complimentary with wines and beers on the way back!

And Pardew and the team will also be taking the journey home to London on it!

Price is sadly a bit too much for me (especially if we make the final a week later with the price of those tickets) as I always go with my wife and son, so 3 x £200 isn't going to happen sadly, but apparently even that price is being subsidised by the owner to the tune of about £100 per person (these trains aren't cheap to run!)

Thought people might be interested!

Might get to Southampton early to see it arrive though
