Dortmund Away

[Impeccable One]

On the day of the game we are heading to dortmund from Dusseldorf, I understand that trains have been included in the match ticket, is that still the case?

Coming back from Dortmund after the game, what is it like getting a train to Dusseldorf?

From the FC Dortmund website …

“Each ticket already includes the fee for the use of public transport - 2nd class - in the VRR (Rhine and Ruhr Public Transport Association) area, meaning that it can be used as a train ticket. Long-distance trains such as IC and ICE are not included in the ticket price.”

http://media.borussia-dortmund.de/pdf/VRR-Gebiet.pdf

Getting back after the match;

Walk (About 6 min)

Take U43 Dorstfeld Betriebshof departing at 11:47 PM, get off at Kampstraße (8 minutes, 6 stops).

Walk (About 5 min)

Take RE6 93152 Düsseldorf Hbf departing at 12:07 AM, get off at Düsseldorf Central Station (58 minutes, 7 stops).

There may be an earlier option, but this one should be easy to make.

what are German police like? Do they treat away fans like the spanish and italian police or are they more civilised

No comparison whatsoever. Far more chilled out and even may I say - friendly.

The German police have always been fantastic in my opinion,never had an issue with them

Best in Europe during my many trips to Germany. Great crowd control with common sense. If you take the piss they will act.They treat fans with respect and most speak English.

Hi everyone, first time going to Dortmund. If anyone is staying in Essen, what’s the best/quickest way to get back to Essen after the game? Thanks

There is a train that leaves Dortmund at 23.23 and takes roughly 25 mins to get into Essen,there will be quite a few blues on that myself included

Isn't that less than 30 minutes after match ends? What if we're kept in?

There are lots of options to Essen, probably on average every 15 mins after the match ends until the wee hours.

Remember, you can use all of these options; https://www.iamexpat.de/expat-info...c-transportation-germany-sbahn-ubahn-tram-bus

Tram & Bus would be OK for Essen, but stick to S & U Bahn for getting back to Dusseldorf

They’ve certainly improved a lot since 1945.

Was that the Nuremberg away game ?

 

[Rhineland]

I’m staying in Essen, seems a real pain getting back with loads of trains showing as not available. Hopefully they will come available at some point over the next 2 weeks. Otherwise I’ll take a taxi back as it’s only a 30 minute drive from Dortmund to Essen. I am open to other suggestions though if anyone has any??

Try Bochum instead, e.g. the Ibis Hotel Bochum, next to Bochum Hauptbahnhof (Main Station), 98€ for a double room for a night - 11 minutwes away from Dortmund main station with RE Regional Express Train or 21 Minutes with the S-Bahn.

I meant match tickets mate sorry haha

 

[Corky]

Yep the extra 1000 was not taken, or if so a few hundred only. The sales were suspended for a week in effect too not allowing members to buy, maybe until too late for some.
