How many hours by train is it from Oxford to Rossendale [ENGLAND]?????

Question

Please help me...by train, how long ??? please and thank you :P

Answer 1

Hi there Ster.

There isn't actually a Rossendale train station, but the nearest is probably Accrington, about five or six miles away.

The train journey from Oxford to Accrington takes around 3 hours 45 mins. You take a Crosscountry train from Oxford to Birmingham New Street, from there you catch a Virgin train to Preston, where you change to a local service (Northern Rail) to Accrington.

There is another route with just one change, but weirdly it takes a lot longer (5 hours 30 mins)... if an easy journey is more important to you than a fast one, you need a Crosscountry train to Leeds, then a Northern Rail train to Accrington.

If you buy your ticket in advance (I use http://www.thetrainline.com ), it'll cost £26.50 each way.  

Hope that helps.
