Get's me to Woolwich - on the rare, really rare occasions I need to go there. No issues other than it was very cold but as it isn't terrible old yet, it's pretty clean still. Working escalators always a plus. read more

Flew into London City the other day and used DLR station to head into the city. The station is…read moreattached to the airport and is merely 20 steps away from the terminal! The trickiest part is payment as it is on the honor system... Payment can be made via single fare tickets, an Oyster card, or any contactless payment device (i.e. Apple Pay, Google Pay, any watch or credit card that has the "Wifi" symbol) Payment via contactless payment will be the cheapest and one merely needs to tap the yellow 3 feet podium before going up the stairs! The station itself is dated, like the rest of London City Airport and needs modernization. Trains have A/C and are on the noisier side...

It's pretty much "Airport that-a-way". I suppose there are people who live in the area that use this station too. It is in Travelcard Zone 3.

The DLR station is mid-block on Woolwich New Road, and the train station is on the corner with Vincent Road.

That said, there are a number of late-night kebab and chicken shops as well as a huge Tesco for grocery shopping during the daytime. Numerous bus connections around the area as well as DLR to Canning Town and Stratford.

It is a major…read morehub, especially if traveling from Heathrow/west/south/north/basically anywhere around London to everywhere else. For how many people pass through daily, I found it clean - especially compared to a public transport stop in Chicago or NYC. As an American, from Wisconsin, I am essentially ignorant as to how public transportation works. But with a little patience and a lot of assistance from Google Maps and politely asking staff or other travelers, it really isn't as crazy as it seems. I feel like there is decent signage, the key is to research ahead of time what platform you are arriving on and where you need to go next. Also, avoiding the work/school rush hours makes it much less intimidating ;)

Imperial Wharf is the newest station on the West London Line. Services commenced on Sunday 27…read moreSeptember 2009, and the station was officially opened by the London Mayor on 29 September. It serves a new development of flats, shops a hotel and offices called Imperial Wharf, built on the site of an old gas works, as well as the more established development at Chelsea Harbour, and older, established neighbourhoods around Sands End. There have been plans to build a station here for some 15 years, as the area has long had poor transport connections; the service now provides access to mainline connections at Clapham Junction, Willesden Junction and Watford Junction, as well as Underground services via West Brompton, Kensington Olympia and Shepherd's Bush. The station itself is built on an embankment, with access via a glass-encased staircase and lifts from a ticket office located in a tunnel under the tracks. The platform buildings comprise shelters under stylish 'wave' styled canopies, with more glass panels to provide protection from the biting winds that come along the Thames. (The exposed nature and lack of heated waiting room is, indeed, one of the station's main drawbacks, although it is possible to shelter in the ticket office area). The station is served by the half-hourly Willesden Junction to Clapham Junction service of London Overground, which is extended to Stratford in peak hours. It is also served by the hourly Milton Keynes - East Croydon Service, which is reduced to Watford Junction to Clapham Junction in the early morning and after the evening rush hour. The station is currently staffed for all trains, and the lifts provide level access throughout. There are uncovered cycle racks in the small square created on the Imperial Wharf (west) side. Bus connections include the 391 (Richmond-Sands End), 424 (Fulham-Putney Heath) and C3 (Clapham Junction-Earl's Court).

The staff here have never been annoyed when I've given them a £20 note first thing in the morning for a bottle of water. There is a free withdrawal cash machine just inside the station. It has on occasion run out of money or £10 notes. There are 4 lifts taking you to & from the platform.

The Station is busy with local people traveling to work and tourists coming to shop in the area. The pace is fast with north/south and east/west trains that travel to Heathrow.

The walls are covered with show advertisements. Using credit card to tap on and off is easy. Monitors tell passengers the exact moment a train will arrive. We travelled through the station several times.

We took the Elizabeth Line to avoid making too many transfers even though there were other train stations nearby. We wanted to keep our trip simple and stress free. If you're are travelling here and taking the Elizabeth Line from the airport to the Strand area.... I recommend using a wheeled rolling suitcase. This is what we used and we packed light too so it was easy for us to roll our luggage along the many cobblestone sidewalks. Navigating Tottenham Court Road Station is easy. There are maps located throughout the station so you know where you are and where you're going and which stops to get off and on at. Make sure to have your credit/debit card on hand to swipe through and make the swipe your card again once you get off the train so you don't keep getting charged after you've completed your trip.

Due to a lift issue at Harrow and Wealdstone Station, I had to take a half an hour detour out of my…read morejourney to continue on my Southern Railway train to Harrow Station, only to end up waiting for another train to take me back to Wembley Central, which goes on the opposite platform with a working lift, this trip to the station because of this was an unwanted one. Harrow and Wealdstone Station is a train station in the Harrow area of London, and for ticketing it is classed as region 5. This is quite an old station, to the point where it was made a Grade II Listed building in 1990. The worst ever British railway crash in 1952, which killed 112 people also sadly occurred here at this station. The station is managed by London Underground but has both Underground and Overground trains. As mentioned this station is pretty old, and it has nothing too special about it, it doesn't have a lot of shops or coffee-shops in the station. Services from here go into the likes of Milton Keynes, Wembley Central and London Euston, with the London Euston being an Overground or London Midland service, as I recall this calls at Wembley Central, so if you're going to watch a football match at Wembley this station isn't too far away for you in terms of getting a train into Wembley. As mentioned, a decent yet not fantastic overall level of more local train connections run from here to the likes of Watford, Milton Keynes, Wembley and London, and this station isn't terrible but overall as it lacks any special feature, other than being a Grade II listed building, I sadly feel Harrow and Wealdstone Station deserves a two-star rating, which even then is a little generous.

The station has buses outside too, making it also useful to get into Watford, which is around a 35-minute bus journey from here. The station was fairly clean, it has step-free access from the street to the platform, although I would advise who can go up the stairs to do so, as the only fully stepless route involves going through a poorly lit car park which can be pretty dangerous even in the day-time. The ticket gates were open for the whole day, this seemed strange as it could mean people potentially passing through the station and easily evading purchasing a ticket, especially considering I could not find any staff members in the station to patrol this. My friend, who is not from London got charged her usual fair and a maximum fare after touching out twice. Come on TFL, there were two minutes between both taps, how could she travel the whole network in two minutes? A useful station for Stanmore and surrounding towns, they have toilets and buses outside the station that allow you to continue your journey and being a terminus station, there is a train in most of the time, so you can get settled without having to wait on a cold platform. 3*

Wimbledon station is one of the busiest stations on the South West Trains network, on the main line…read morefrom Waterloo to Southampton. It is also the terminus of the Wimbledon branch of the District Line of TfL, and of the Tramlink to Croydon, and provides an interchange with the Sutton loop of the Thameslink service via Blackfriars. It is used by 19 million passengers a year on the main line, a similar number on the District Line, and over 2 million on Tramlink. The station opened on the Waterloo to Woking Line in 1838, with the other branches owning over the subsequent 40 years, although the line towards Sutton opened as late as 1929. In 1997 the line to West Croydon was closed for conversion into the Tramlink, reopening in 2000. In 1881 the station was relocated from its original site on the opposite side of the bridge. The station was rebuilt in the Art Deco style in the 1920s. The station has 11 platforms: 1-4 for the District Line terminus, which has its own concourse on the north side of the station (where the toilets are located); 5-8 on the South West main line; 9 for Thameslink services and 10a and 10b for Tramlink. Platforms 6 and 7 are on the fast lines and only used occasionally. All stopping suburban services from Waterloo stop here. Lifts provide step free access to all platforms. The ticket office and concourse are located on the north side of the station adjacent to the staircase to the District Line. There are shop units along the bridge above the platforms selling food, and future shop units on the District Line concourse. There is an exit on the south side of the station next to the entrance to the Centre Court shopping centre.
