Question

I want to get from Manchester to the port of dover (uk), is there a direct train there, I looked on the gner website but there are a few stations, which is best and how far are they from the port.

Answer 1

It is possible, the Rail planner found several journeys with 2 or 3 changes, to Dover Priory, from there you can take a local bus.

Coming from the ferry there was a connecting bus, so I am pretty sure there is one the other way round too.

Did not take long, I do not remember how long.

Use the Advanced search options  and select not to use a station, all London stations.

An other site that can help you find your public transport in the UK, although I did not find the avoid London option:

This one can do bus, coach, train and even ferry.
