"Does this mean every City fan with a ticket has a free train ticket from Dusseldorf to Dortmund?"

YES!!!


The train goes via Düsseldorf-Flughafen, Duisburg, Mülheim ( near Oberhausen ), Essen, Bochum to Dortmund.
When you arrive in Dortmund, you leave the station and visit ( 5-10 min. to march, you can ask everbody to show you the way ) "Alter Markt, Hansaplatz" ( Weihnachtsmarkt with the largest christmas-tree of the world ). Afterwards you enter - after a few beers or "Glühwein" - the underground at "Stadtgarten" or "Reinoldikirche" with the destination "Stadion" or "Westfalenhallen".
Who likes, marches from the city along "Hohe Strasse" directly to the stadium ( about 25 min., if you do not visit the many pubs along the way to the stadium, by the way: guests are welcome! )

I was very pleased by the atmosphere in Manchester and I think you should be too in Dortmund.

Thanks, looking forward to it

Main-station in the north, Weihnachtsmarkt in the middle, Westfalenstadion, excuse me "Signal-Iduna-Park" in the south:

Thanks for your help.

You better take RE ( Regional Express ) 1:

and not S-Bahn, because the trip with S-Bahn will last about at least 1:30h.
You also can use RE 4 oder RE 6, but the trip will last about an hour.
The tickets are valid for these trains too.

Problem will be that the RE3 is leaving Dortmund main station at 23:03
and RE4 at 23:09

23:03 ab Dortmund Hbf Gleis 21
Regionalexpress RE3
Richtung Düsseldorf Hbf
00:12 an Düsseldorf Hbf Gleis 9

23:09 ab Dortmund Hbf
R-Bahn RE4
Richtung Düsseldorf Hbf
00:19 an Düsseldorf Hbf

The game is over earliest at 22:30 so they will probaly not make it.
Besides the ICE train (for which the match ticket is not valid) the S1 at 23:53 is the next best option the to Düsseldorf.

23:53 ab Dortmund Hbf
S-Bahn S1
Richtung Solingen Hbf
01:23 an Düsseldorf Hbf Gleis 11

Is the Underground free too with a match ticket?

 

[wilfredo09]

Yes, it is.
"Freie Hin- und Rückfahrt am Veranstaltungstag mit allen VRR-Verkehrsmitteln 2. Klasse."
Includes the underground, bus etc.

Travel and accommodation now booked. Was gonna wait till after Wednesdays game but then thought win, lose or draw we should be there supporting them in Europe.
