The bus station is easily located in the centre of the city. I struggled this morning largely as I couldn't find an information kiosk to check where I needed to be. Although I knew the number of the service I wasn't sure of the stop but when I asked one of the bus drivers they were very helpful (even though it was run by a separate company) and pointed me in the right direction. There are no shops or eateries within the station itself but due to its close proximity to the city i don't think this is too much of an issue. Overall I marked it down due to the difficulty in navigating stops and it appeared a bit disorganised with one driver getting off and shouting for passengers to Ely.

There's loads of parking space and as far as I could see the frequency of buses to downtown Cambridge is quite high. You can pay for parking and pick up bus tickets at the automated ticket machines on location. However if you are taking the train into the city and have a network rail card, it is best to buy your discounted plus bus ticket as an add on to your train ticket

April 27th 2025. During our first trip to London we took…read moreUber from Heathrow airport to our hotel at Hilton West end. Trip cost about the equivalent of $75. Second trip to London we took the London underground from Heathrow to Holborn all along the Piccadilly line without transferring. 23 stops along the line but we we were seated the entire time carrying day packs and one carry-on luggage each.. The cost was the equivalent of $7 per person. If you are coming from Heathrow airport during rush hour you can take the Heathrow Express directly from the airport too Paddington station. For two people this would be about the same Fare as Uber. And you would still have to get from Paddington station to your central London hotel. In our case we could have taken the Elizabeth Express from Heathrow airport to Tottenham Court road station and walked the mile to our hotel near Holborn underground station. The fair would have been about double that of the London underground. Both of the Heathrow Express and Elizabeth line are more luggage friendly. Compared to the London underground. The London underground has contactless payment. You simply scan your credit card on entry and scan the same credit card on exit. Seats seats are cloth with armrest. People with oversized luggage can put your luggage near the doors in special areas. is not advised during peak hours was standing room only. Unlike New York City most London stations have working escalators making it possible, but not easy, to carry luggage on the trains. Make sure you put your luggage on its side. One person put his luggage on his wheels in the luggage area but the luggage rolled out the entrance on its own at the next stop.

London Underground is an excellent model of public transportation. We used it to get to and from…read morethe airport from Paddington Station, which was near our hotel. London Underground is certainly cheaper than a taxi or uber, and we had no problems finding room on the trains with our luggage (two people, each with a carry on). Announcements remind you to "mind the gap", and the stations we visited were staffed and welcoming. One even had an inspirational quote up. As expected, some stations are more modern than others since they are utilized more. I loved that I could tap my credit card to get through the gates onto the train, rather than buying a physical card or downloading an app. I wish the DC Metro used this system.

It is the second-most northerly station on the underground network (after Chesham). History The line from Loughton to Ongar via Epping was opened in 1865 as an extension of the Eastern Counties Railway line from London Liverpool Street to Loughton. For most of its life it was a normal suburban railway branch, but was included in post-war plans to extend to Central Line beyond Leytonstone. The line from Loughton to Epping was incorporated into London Transport and electrified in 1949. The line beyond to Ongar was thereafter operated as a shuttle - by steam until 1957, and electric until its closure in 1994. Since then Epping has been the true eastern terminus of the line. The station The station preserves its original buildings on the main platform, as well as an attractive Great Eastern Railway footbridge across to platform 2. There is a ticket office, a large 500-space car park, and a bus stop for services to Harlow and Chipping Ongar. The station is in zone 6, and normally enjoys an off-peak 10-minute frequency of trains to West Ruislip - one of the longest journeys possible on the Underground system, nearly 35 miles away on the other side of the capital.

The station was opened on 13th March 1933 as part of the extension from Finsbury Park to Cockfosters, itself part of a works scheme designed to relieve unemployment. The line was amazingly - built in just under three years, but it is most famous for the modernist / art-deco style surface buildings of its stations, designed by the London Underground architect Frank Holden. All feature tall, drum-like ticket halls with curtains of glass: that at Southgate is lower than the rest, but is very well preserved. It is a Grade II listed building. A unique feature is the futuristic decoration atop the centre of the drum, which resembles an electric insulator. The station also retains its 'London Underground' symbols atop smaller matching concrete drums at the front and back of the station. The whole ensemble is beautifully illuminated at night. The station also has a bus interchange, built sympathetically with a long, gently curved curtain wall of brick following the line of the bus lane around the west of the station, incorporating a parade of shops. It makes for both an effective public transport interchange and an attractive piece of urban design. The station is served by Piccadilly line trains and bus routes 121, 125, 298, 299, 382, W6, W9 and night bus N91.
