Lags Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Mods I knew this isn't the correct forum, but the most noticed. So please leave this thread till after the Brentford game for those that it will help. Question: Best way via tube from Euston Station to Brentford's Griffin park? Looking at the Brentford website, the most straight forward walk would be from Ealing South tube station on the Piccadilly line. (it's zone three for those travelling tis way) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the Brentford website, the most straight forward walk would be from Ealing South tube station on the Piccadilly line. (it's zone three for those travelling tis way) I did it to South Ealing Tube last time and that's the way I intend going tomorrow, it's about 5 minutes on the bus from there or a 15-20 minute walk in a straight line to Griffin Park.

Looking at the Brentford website, the most straight forward walk would be from Ealing South tube station on the Piccadilly line. (it's zone three for those travelling tis way) That's probably the best way. There is engineering work on the Piccadilly so no service north of Kings X. That shouldn't be a problem but if there are knock on effects which wouldn't be a huge surprise then the alternative would be to get the Northern line to Waterloo and then the overground train to Brentford.

Lags Posted October 8, 2010 Author Share Posted October 8, 2010 Thanks brothers. So am I correct in saying, from Euston take the Northern line south to Leicester Square then, the Piccadilly to South Ealing tube? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kentlats Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Thanks brothers. So am I correct in saying, from Euston take the Northern line south to Leicester Square then, the Piccadilly to South Ealing tube? Yes, or take the Victoria line south to Green Park then change to the Picadilly line, a couple less stops and you'll avoid the nightmare that is Picadilly Circus and Leicester Square on a Saturday afternoon!!!!

pukka Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 I've done it to brentford 3 times via South Ealing station. Come out of the station, turn right and its a stright walk down a hill to the ground. (There is amain road to cross at the bottom). Its about a 15 min walk - but the ground is easy to find.

opinions4u Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 My plan was: Euston - Leicester Square ... drop bag off at free hotel Leicester - Square - Waterloo ... change to overground Waterloo - Brentford Is that an acceptable plan? (Then walk back to hotel from Waterloo, give the lad a 60 mniute tour of London!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 That's entirely acceptable, o4u. And +1 on the Victoria Line/Green Park/Piccadilly Line route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Park is a very long walk to change from Picadilly to Victoria line (so I assume its the same the other way) and I would advise against it for anyone with decent sized bags.

How long? do you mean like down streets? or through underground walk ways? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Underground walkways. It's 5 minutes tops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24hoursfromtulsehill Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 How long? do you mean like down streets? or through underground walk ways? He means through the underground station itself. It's not that far anyway, unless you're a proper whinging fairy. Victoria line to Green Park and Piccadilly line to South Ealing is the best way.

maddog Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Our plan was Victoria Line Euston to Green Park then Piccadilly Line Green Park to Hammersmith - pop our heads above ground to dump bags at the hotel, then Piccadilly Line Hammersmith to South Ealing...........walk.......drink......watch the match........drink........drink........ We're on the 9.55 from Manchester, gets in just after 12, so I reckon it might be tightish for time . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a can from the offy for the walk from South Ealing to Brentford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudemedic Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Underground walkways. It's 5 minutes tops. It took me 3 times that- but then again I had a big bag, as I'd just come back from travelling. (I might have taken the long way though but that was from following the signs) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
