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

Thanks for the info mate. Is there any likelyhood that we will be kept in for a while after the game or will they let both sets of fans out at the same time?

Only reason I'm asking is that we really could do with catching the 23.53 train back to Dusseldorf. Looking at google maps, it's a 47 minute walk back to the station which should be more than enough time but if there is a significant delay in getting out of the stadium then it might be tricky. I know from earlier posts that there are stations near the stadium that serve the main train station so maybe no need to walk back but I'd imagine these would be extremely busy?

We didn't get kept behind against Schalke or Bayern Munich, so . . .

Only £34 seats in 61B now showing on Os...does that mean we sold a good number? Maybe we sent some back?

I can't imagine, that you'll be held in the stadium for a long time after the end of the match. BVB-Fans and ManC-Fans will not be separated at the terraces, so there only would be a reason to hold you back, if there were any aggressive behaviours between the fans; I can't imagine this.

So the atmosphere is normally, loud, enthusiastic but respectful.

You're right, the underground will be overcrowded at the end of the match, so I'd prefer to have a walk.
You leave the stadium, cross the B1-Autoway via bridge and follow the Lindemannstr. to the end. Then you're 500 meters away from the central station.

I think someone said it was close to selling out at the weekend - full allocation.

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.

As the song says, Over land and sea...

It'll be a party anyway, can't wait, just go with the idea of enjoying the trip whatever the result/situation.

For years we went away expecting f**k all, even to places like York and Chester, to go to Munich, Villareal, Naples, Madrid, Amsterdam, and Dortmund is a bonus, whatever the results, obviously good results make it better, but the bad ones don't ruin the trip for me.

Enjoy.
