thepurplehoodedwarrior Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Hi just checked my local train station ( east tilbury) and anyone getting the c2c line into London be warned the train is not going to west ham, limehouse or fenchurch street but going from barking to Stratford and Liverpool street so suggest getting the district line from barking. There is no circle line so will have to rely on the district line to west brompton. So if this will increase your travel time you may want to leave earlier. Hope this helps, see you there!

thepurplehoodedwarrior Posted July 16, 2010 Author Share Posted July 16, 2010 This has helped a lot I am getting on that line tomorrow at Southend what would be better? Getting district line from Barking or changin at Liverpool Street Get the district line from barking as you'll have to change trains more often. Erm we are arriving at Marylebone. Wheres the best place for us to go/quickest way? I would get from marlylbone to edgware road onto west brompton get on the district line to west brompton (you can walk round or get the bakerloo line to paddington then onto west brompton if don't wanna walk but may take longer) Please double check as i'm not the best map reader but hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tron777 Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Just as a back up plan, do any of you know the bus numbers to catch to get from Kings cross station to earls court ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spookie Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Just as a back up plan, do any of you know the bus numbers to catch to get from Kings cross station to earls court ? Use the Journey Planner on www.tfl.gov.uk to check bus numbers and the tube - it should show any engineering/road works as well :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlokylie Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Did anyone have issues with the district line too? In specific at about half 5 when there tube wasn't running to paddington due to signal failure. We had to get the bus, I mean who needs signals?
