By Rail:

I do not recommend traveling to this game by train. While it is possible the train times are not good, and there is no possibility of getting cheap tickets to Morecambe (if you're traveling from York anyway!).

The ground is about a ten minute walk away from Morecambe railway station. As you come out of the station turn right going straight down Central Drive and then alongside Euston Road. This leads into Lancaster Road where the ground is located. Morecambe is served by trains from Lancaster.
