Title: Swindon - Paddington, then?
Post by: rich on Friday, May 28, 2010, 19:00:44
For all those going on the train, what route are you taking to wembley from paddington, and what station are you heading to as there are a few around wembley?

Also after the game whats the best station to leave from and best route back to paddington?

Cheers

is there a direct one from paddington to central or is there a change?

what about wembley stadium station, via marylebone i think it was, aparantly its much closer to the stadium..is that likely to involve a clash with millwall though? don't really know london/train and tube routes much :/

Wembley Central would be the best if you want to avoid Wall fans. There will be a change to get there or any of the stations.

you'd need to go to marylebone from paddington to get the train to wembley stadium. the tube from paddington is direct to central.

the wembley stadium is a rail stop, not underground but is closer. if you want the pubs though, go to central

You can go Paddington to Wembley Central on the Bakerloo Line, and that brings you out where all the Swindon pubs are. The main alternative is to go Paddington to Baker Street (Bakerloo, Southbound) then on to Wembley Park (Metropolitan). That brings you out right at the top of Wembley Way.

You better take your own beers on the train as they are all dry by order of the police
