Just wondering where everyone gets off the tube when going to Wembley?

A couple of times I've been Ive got off at Neasden and walked down. I'm guessing its going to be a nightmare coming out of Wembley Stadium and getting back on there.

Wheres best to get off for a drink?

Wembley Central is a better bet when leaving the stadium . you can get at tube to Paddington or an overland train to Euston, tube tickets are valid for both. All day unlimited travel on tube, London overground and docklands railway zones 1 - 6 costs £8 , a bargin if you use the tube more than twice.

We always arrive and depart from wembley park station at the bottom of wembley way, was surprised at how little queue there was after last years final,

Takes 50 mins to get to wembley from where we are staying.

I got back on the tube at Wembley Park (at the end of wembley way) after the EUFA champions league final this year - I was on a tube 15 minutes after the final whistle, very well organised, they had about 6 platforms operating and stewards directing you to the most empty platforms. Trains were coming in every couple of minutes....extremely well organised and very impressive....not what I was expecting at all.

My advice is buy an Oyster card. They work out cheaper & you don't have to wait to buy a ticket. www.tfl.gov.uk/

Go one station passed Wembley to Kingsbury, left out of station theres a Wetherspoons and another couple of pubs and cafes

In stopping around Dartford with family and traveling into Wembley via the tube from the o2...

Wembley Park is a very efficient station i wouldn't worry too much about it.

Wembley Park, then short walk to [url=http://www.pub-explorer.com/gtlondon/pub/torchwembley.htmthe Torch Pub[/url.

There's also loads of shops and restaurants near to the pub if you'd prefer to sit outside with a can or five!

Can't believe The Torch has now got decking and umbrellas etc.



It's a far cry from the days when there'd always be some Wiganers up on the roof leading the chanting.

Not that I condone it, obviously

get the overground to wembley central 20 minutes. il be drinkin in green man.

Good luck to you, and anyone else attempting to catch the Overground to Wembley...

im not going on the train...im on the coach...but im just saying its easier that way(well i find it easier for england home games)

You'll have a long wait and probably miss kick off

I think it's been mentioned on another thread but this is just a reminder that Chiltern Railways won't be running via Wembley Stadium station 21-27 August. There's some info about it (and alternative Underground travel) here: www.chilternrailways.co.uk/route ... ey-stadium For anyone travelling in and around London, I find the Transport for London Journey Planner useful: journeyplanner.tfl.gov.uk/user/X ... anguage=en

Rather than an oyster card, keep in mind that you can buy tube travelcards with your train tickets, or from most UK mainline stations, to avoid queues when you get to That London. That's what I do when I go down for work.

Should probably get an oyster card really, but I haven't got round to it.

For pubs round Wembley, if you're anywhere near the ground, prepare to spend time with your face in people's armpits or people's faces in your armpits, depending on your height. The stadium's fantastic, but for pre and post match beveraging Wembley is a massive disappointment once you've been used to Cardiff.

I once travelled using a Travelcard that was bought with a train ticket. I was told that it can only be used on Underground services. This went alongside not working in the ticket barriers at Waterloo (the attendant let me through) and having to follow someone through when I got to Twickenham.

I've only ever bought them with the intention of using them on the tube.

In my experience, ones bought through the company (via the trainline's business service I believe) tend to work in the barriers, but ones bough from Virgin trains tend not to. Meh.

London travel cards work with London Tube / DLR and London overground services. They do not work on Network rail services unless specified . i.e I have bought an off peak travel card which is combined with Gatwick Airport which also allows return travel between Victoria Station and Gatwick airport. An off peak day card (zones 1 - 6 ) is £8 the card i have purchased was £14.20 .See the London overground map for services you can use.

EW is partially right I guess. Travelling from Maidstone on Southeastern, the travelcard extension allows travel Zone 1-6, tubes buses and overground trains. Barriers always open when travelling on South West/Southern, without fail. East Midlands travel card extension allowed tubes only (apparently).
