Heathrow Express or Not
From where I live, Heathrow Airport is not the easiest place to get to. If I was going for a week or so, I’d leave my car with the valet parking and drive. C and I once went by bus from Newmarket and that was fine, except that they are every two hours. When will they learn that to get people to use public transport, you need a decent frequency.
I will take the train from Whittlesford and then the Victoria Line into London. But instead of taking the tube to Paddington, I’ll do a cross-platform change to the Piccadilly Line at Finsbury Park and go straight to the airport. London Transport say it is 20 minutes slower than the Heathrow Express, but it won’t involve any humping of baggage up and down steps.
