Answer 1

The time by train would probably be about 40 minutes. By car, well you are in the lap of the God`s there. During rush hour about 2 hours, at 3.00 am about 30 minutes.As for times and ticket availability try jack`s answer.

Answer 2

approx 40 minutes by both. for train times and buying tickets go to www.thetrainline.com

Answer 3

By car, out of rush hour about an hours drive, early morning about 30mins and in rush hour Id take a packed lunch! (about 2-3 hours)

Train about 40 mins.

Check out theaa routeplanner for car journey and thetrainline for train journey. You can buy train tickets online there, and get them delivered or you can collect them at the station at 'fastticket' machines (I think they are called0

Answer 6

by car it takes about 45 minutes, but that is not during rush hour during rush hour it will probably take far longer, but then it depends on the traffic.

If you are in Liverpool City centre and driving follow the signs for the M62 (East) Manchester & Leeds once on the M62 keep following the signs for Manchester City Centre and when you reach the M60 go straigh on as the M60 is Manchester's ring road.

By Train you need to catch a train from Liverpool Lime Street into Manchester and it takes 46 minutes. There are trains between every 20 - 30 minutes.

(My parents used to live in St Helens which is just outside Liverpool so I have traveled both ways)

I hope that this helps.
