If you're able to get to Farringdon fairly easily, you can change over to the tube platform (1 min walk) and get the met line to Wembley Park (6 stops). Probably a better option than London bridge / Jubilee due to the amount of stops involved once on the underground. Contrary to the below, the MET LINE is RUNNING on Sunday. Just check train times as they will be every 15 and 30 mins. Edited by SW19 CPFC (13 Apr 2022 4.53pm) Did you know? 98.0000001% of people are morons.

You might want to check out the service status for the Metropolitan line according to TFL they are running a special service until the summer. I saw something about all the trains have a problem ?

Pity we haven't been given the 100 coaches that the FA allowed the Northern cry-babies to have buckshee so that THEY can get to Wembley because there are no trains from Manchester or Liverpool to London. they could of course gone Trans-Pennine to Leeds/Doncaster & got trains to Kings X. This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

Just checked Chiltern Trains current timetable for serices from London Marylebone to Wembley Stadium on Sunday. Times as follows:12.12/12.40/12.53/13.10/13.53/14.12/14.53/15.12. Journey time 9 minutes....they say that they will be running longer trains on these services. Cheers Gerry J

YT, all he needs to do is go on the Chiltern Trains website, put in Sunday 17th April, departure station and destination station and time of travel, he will then get a list of services. Hope that helps.

As the OP lives in Hinckley, Chiltern Trains are no use he needs to travel as follows: Depart Hinckley 10.28 arrive Leicester 10.48. Depart Leicester 11.44 arrive London St Pancras 12.55 then Hammersmith and City line to Baker Street change onto Bakerloo line (one stop) to Marylebone. Depart Marylebone 13.53 arrive Wembley Stadium 14.02. Hope he reads this and is of use. Or drive to Birmingham and go from there.

One possible 'tweak' from me would be to walk from Baker Street to Marylebone rather than to change underground lines. As I recall it from my commuting days, the Hammersmith & City line is just below street level whereas the Bakerloo line is deep, deep down, with quite a long walk just to get to it. By the time you've done that and then up again at Marylebone, you might as well walk, then enjoy a pint or two in 'The Railway Tavern'! Palace since 19 August 1972.

There are NO trains from MK to Euston & vice versa, so going to B'ham will be a waste of time. This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

Originally posted by Eagle Black. Yep Metropolitan line is shut ffs,jubilee line it is,not as quick as the Metropolitan line but better than nothing. Met line is NOT shut. Amersham and Chesham to Baker Street routes are running once every 30 minutes in both directions, while Uxbridge to Aldgate and Watford to Baker Street are both running once every 15 minutes. This is absolutely fine because if everyone thinks it's shut there will be no one on the train. Winning Did you know? 98.0000001% of people are morons.
