For anyone going to Watford on Sunday 26th August, London Euston station will be completely closed. Virgin Trains tweeted this today. I’m guessing it’ll have to be a tube to Watford High Street instead.

you cannot do either e croydon or clapham junct straight through to watford.... presumable due to engineering works

I travel that way most days so would advise to go to Clapham Junction, then get the Overground from platform 1 to Willesden Junction. From there you can get the Overground to Watford. Normally takes an hour from Thornton Heath to Wembley so not much more to Watford.

Shed loads of the wonderful engineering works on the O/ground at w/e's tho Steph & no, I wasn't thing of the MK train due to works, I was thinking of the WJ train itself.
