But this is what I asked @Covered End about. It's not, apparently, every 15 minutes. It seems to be two in 7 minutes and then a gap of 23 minutes. I have the TFL app now, and can see it for myself , but it's no frigging way to run a railway. And the TFL app, bloody hell...if I ask for Eltham station to Marylebone at 08.55, it proposes a bus to NG and the Bakerloo, or a bus to Woolwich for the ELZ. No mention of taking the train.Rock Spectacle said:Eltham trains do run every 15 minutes but only directly to Victoria and Cannon Street. Can change at Lewisham then wait for Charing Cross train (which has busy potential) then tube to Baker Street for tubes to Wembley Park or onto Marylebone. Full circle, personally Eltham to Victoria, tube via Oxford Circus to Marylebone then 9 minute train from there to Wembley Stadium. Very easy from there.
It's going to be fun agreeing this with my brother. he has Strong Opinions on these things. Runs in the family I suppose🤣

Leaving now and taking no chances!se9addick said:
For goodness sake, we’re going to North London not a trek across the Sahara!swords_alive said:Suggest best to familiarise with some back up routes for the day. That Elizabeth line is a major let down when it fails and you will be lucky to be a useful inter-change to change route. The mainlines to London Bridge/ Charing Cross aren't exactly reliable when they are needed either. So i recommend thinking about alternatives like the DLR, e.g. from Woolwich, and Greenwich should it be needed.
People, let’s be careful out there!

Sorry @T_C_E your bag is larger than A4 so we cannot let you in.T_C_E said:

So just to confirm, my ticket doesn’t include transport to and from the stadium?5

When are train tickets going on sale?Off_it said:"Back up routes"!
There are four different ways to get to Wembley from Baker Street alone.
Anyone who wants to get there will get there.2 -
Too late, all the good deals went on sale 3 months ago & have been snapped up.The Red Robin said:

We're trying to look cool, and pretend we dont know. Would be like catnip to any Millwall fans reading this thread if we show our true knowledgeJohnnyH2 said:This thread is laughable. A London Club needing travel directions to Wembley, and we are meant to be the trainspotters!2 -
On the move from Leeds and on time. Little afternoon in London before tomorrow0

We are a London club with probably the largest natural catchment area in the country stretching from the coast to the east and the coast to the south with limited competition, particularly to the population it covers. Some of us live in London, I suspect most don’t.JohnnyH2 said:This thread is laughable. A London Club needing travel directions to Wembley, and we are meant to be the trainspotters!3 -
Bugger, beaten to it with the bag gag. Will have to console myself with the joy of working out how to get to Wembley with half the trains not working0

Once the Orient fans have finished buying what they need.The Red Robin said:

I am coming from Essex too and will have to travel with O’s supporters ..Stig said:
Bugger, coming from Essex my plan was to get on the Jubilee at West Ham. Stupidly, I hadn't considered that that would put us in the middle of all the travelling O's fans. I guess it's still the best option though as whichever way we come we're going to have to cross their patch. Will just have to beat the crowds by going early. My plan for coming home is to have a very good reason to hang around Wembley longer than anyone supporting Orientstoneroses19 said:Woolwich and Elizabeth Line is the best and likely quickest option.Jubilee Line trains from N Greenwich could be all packed as Orient will have just got on at Stratford.

Probably a bit quieter that it might otherwise have been!stockportaddick said:

Off to a flyer with GWR. “Lack of staff” blamed for delays to London. Still better than leaving it till tomorrow morning, although at this rate…..0

Not outside they dont.killerandflash said:
Wembley Park station has lifts as wellgolfaddick said:
Ah yes, the steps. Loads of them at Wembley Park tube station.PragueAddick said:Blimey, never thought this thread would get to 100 posts!!
But it's interesting, I tried to see how AI deals with this and the answer is, not great. The Overground from Marylebone - which I too had never heard of - never got a mention. Is this the Chiltern Line service that was mentioned earlier ?
@Covered End I'm not sure I understand your train times from Eltham. That doesnt look right to me. Four an hour but bunched together like that?
But appreciate you considering my "mobility problem". Thankfully its getting better by the day, almost OK but given the choice I'd certainly avoid more steps than I need to. How long has Wembley Stadium existed? I don't recall it in 20190 -

There and back from the North West tomorrow. Driving to Kingsbury tube station for breakfast pints of non alcohol beer 🤣.J BLOCK said:Travelling down from the north west today - back home after the game0 -
Going on coach from Larkfield?
Martins Square car park is no longer free and costs £5:80.Not a lot off street.Coaches leave as soon as they can so be there 15 mins before departure time.0 -

we will be heading to green man there are 22 of us heading there should be there by about 9.30ish1 -
This but starting at Strood. I was surprised how quick the “high speed” was 😬Greenhithe said:You’re all mad.Ebbsfleet to Kings Cross. 19 minutes
King’s Cross to Wembley met line 19 minutes.Easy1 -

LB will be busier than 2019 as its a London Derby. I live in Eltham but am doing Woolwich to Liverpool St then Met line to Wembley Park, hopefully in just over 1 hour.🤔Milan said:
Doing the same journey myself, all the other alternatives (132 to North Greenwich etc.) just seem like a pain in the arse.se9addick said:Eltham Addicks get the train to London Bridge and the Jubilee to Wembley (just under an hour total duration). What’s all this nonsense about driving to North Greenwich?0 -
Getting train from Chelmsford to Liverpool Street then met, nice and easy. Will be a lot of orient on there, but in 2019 the train from Essex was packed with Sunderland fans and that was more of a surprise. Should be a good atmosphere0

I always thought Strood sounded Scottish. As does Wrabness.Ultimatum said:

You don't have to go down the steps outside Wembley Park station. If you go out to the left onto the road you can go down any number of slopes.golfaddick said:
