Motor Show • The Motor Show at the National Exhibition Centre, Birmingham, opens to the public on October 18 and runs until October 26. There are three trade-only days — October 15-17.
The opening hours are 9.30am to 7.00pm each day, but trade visitors can enter at 9.00am each day. On the final day, the Show closes at 5.30pm.
The coaches and buses are displayed in Hall Eight, which will close on October 19. British Rail is operating extra Inter City services to Birmingham International, right next to the NEC, and there will also be more trains running between Birmingham New Street and International.
First class-only Inter City Motorshow Expresses will run on the trade days, leaving Euston at 0755hrs and 0832hrs, calling at Watford Junction. They return from Birmingham International at 1653hrs and 1723hrs.
Special executive tickets are available on these trains, costing .50. This includes first class travel, breakfast — with champagne — and a threecourse dinner on the return journey.
