  SPEAKER_00: In this podcast, Tracy shares destination guides, travel tips and itinerary ideas, as well as interviews with a variety of guests who share their knowledge and experience of UK travel to help you plan your perfect UK vacation.
• 0:24
  SPEAKER_00: Join us as we explore the UK from cosmopolitan cities to quaint villages, from historic castles to beautiful islands, and from the picturesque countryside to seaside towns.
• 0:37
  SPEAKER_01: Hi and welcome to the UK Travel Planner Podcast.
• 0:39
  SPEAKER_01: You're listening to episode 31.
• 0:42
  SPEAKER_01: Are you planning train travel from London but are not familiar with the major London train stations?
• 0:48
  SPEAKER_01: Navigating London transport options can be confusing for visitors, and we have recently been asked to explain in further detail about travelling from London by train for day trips or longer.
• 0:58
  SPEAKER_01: In this podcast, Doug and I will talk through some of the principal train stations you may use if you are travelling from London to other destinations in the UK, plus which train stations connect to the main London airports for your arrival and departure.
• 1:11
  SPEAKER_01: We also discuss which areas of the country each station serves, the types of services that run from each, and examples of travel times to popular UK destinations.
• 1:21
  SPEAKER_01: Whether you plan to journey from London for a day trip by train to one of the popular cities or attractions nearby, or for a longer rail adventure around the UK, these are the train stations you will be using.
• 1:32
  SPEAKER_01: It is also worth considering when planning your accommodation in London so you're not spending too much time crossing the city to access train services.
• 1:41
  SPEAKER_01: Each train station serves particular areas of the UK, and we will talk through each London train station in clockwise order, starting with stations in North London.
• 1:52
  SPEAKER_01: The first train station that we're going to start with is Houston, which I am always mispronouncing and saying Houston, but it isn't, it's E U S T-O-N, so Houston.
• 2:04
  SPEAKER_01: So Doug's here to talk us through the different train stations.
• 2:07
  SPEAKER_01: So Doug, I'm going to hand over to you to talk to us a little bit about Houston train station.
• 2:11
  SPEAKER_03: Yep, no problem.
• 2:13
  SPEAKER_03: Houston, not Houston, Houston, is the main train station for the West Coast Main Line, which runs predominantly on the west side of the country and covers trains up to Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool, Lake District, and Glasgow.
• 2:33
  SPEAKER_03: The two sorts of trains that run on there basically there's an old intercity type service, or new trains, sorry, and they don't generally stop until further on in the journey.
• 2:43
  SPEAKER_03: So it just reduces the travel time up to Scotland, and then there's uh more regional type services which stop at every single station.
• 2:54
  SPEAKER_03: Um but yeah, so you've got big long journeys, you can get to uh between Houston and Glasgow takes five hours, a little bit longer than the East Coast mainline.
• 3:03
  SPEAKER_03: Houston to Liverpool is about three hours, Birmingham about an hour and a half, and if you want to go all the way up to Inverness with a couple of changes, it can take about 11 hours.
• 3:13
  SPEAKER_03: But that's mainly the uh Caledonian sleeper services, which run um labelled as the Lowlander and the Highlander services, the Highlanders being up to Fort William, Inverness, and Lowlanders to Glasgow and Edinburgh.
• 3:30
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, yeah, we've caught the Caledonian Sleeper a few times actually from Houston, haven't we?
• 3:34
  SPEAKER_01: Which is is brilliant.
• 3:35
  SPEAKER_01: So obviously, um, as with all London train stations, London uh the London Houston is also a mainline train station and a tube station.
• 3:44
  SPEAKER_01: I think that's both.
• 3:46
  SPEAKER_03: Yes, yes, that that's true, yes.
• 3:47
  SPEAKER_03: Because if you travel across London, uh you should go by tube and then that meets the connected services at mainline train stations.
• 3:56
  unknown: Yeah.
• 3:56
  SPEAKER_01: So in Houston is on the Northern Line and the Victoria lines.
• 4:00
  SPEAKER_01: Um so nearby attractions uh touston train station are the British Library and the British Museum.
• 4:07
  SPEAKER_01: Train station we're going to talk about is St.
• 4:09
  SPEAKER_01: Pancras and St.
• 4:10
  SPEAKER_01: Pancras International.
• 4:11
  SPEAKER_01: So over to you, Doug.
• 4:12
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, okay.
• 4:12
  SPEAKER_03: So firstly, I'll I'll have to say people get confused between St.
• 4:16
  SPEAKER_03: Pancras and St Pancras International.
• 4:19
  SPEAKER_03: They are part of the same station.
• 4:21
  SPEAKER_03: The international park covers the Eurostar services to Paris and Brussels and Amsterdam.
• 4:26
  SPEAKER_03: And it's signposted within the station as well, so it's easy to find.
• 4:31
  SPEAKER_03: So the the other part of the station covers trains to Lights of Derby and to the central part of the UK, and you can get up to um York and Scotland from that way as well.
• 4:43
  SPEAKER_03: It takes slightly longer.
• 4:44
  SPEAKER_03: So if you're going to say just York or to Edinburgh, you'd be wanted to go from King's Cross station, which we'll be covering later.
• 4:53
  SPEAKER_03: So to give you some ideas of train times, because you can also uh catch trains from St Pancras to the southeast of England, uh, like uh Brighton as well.
• 5:03
  SPEAKER_03: So give us some idea of time.
• 5:05
  SPEAKER_03: So St Pancras to Derby is about an hour and 40 minutes, uh Pancras to um Leicester, about an hour and five minutes.
• 5:13
  SPEAKER_03: London, St Pancras to Luton Airport is about 45 minutes.
• 5:18
  SPEAKER_03: Um, and obviously, if you catch in Eurostar, it's about two and a half hours, I think it's two hours twenty-nine to be exact.
• 5:24
  SPEAKER_03: To Paris.
• 5:25
  SPEAKER_03: To Paris from from London, yeah.
• 5:26
  SPEAKER_01: Um yeah, I'm also just gonna mention that actually, um St.
• 5:29
  SPEAKER_01: Pancras International.
• 5:30
  SPEAKER_01: It's just a beautiful station.
• 5:31
  unknown: St.
• 5:31
  SPEAKER_01: Pancras International.
• 5:33
  SPEAKER_01: It's just a beautiful station, it's in a beautiful building.
• 5:35
  SPEAKER_03: It is, and there's some lovely statues there, but it's also very historic, which you can read about if you get to catch a train from there.
• 5:42
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it is lovely.
• 5:43
  SPEAKER_01: It's always a lovely station to go and take just photographs at and actually have a wander around upstairs.
• 5:47
  SPEAKER_01: So do you have many photos?
• 5:49
  SPEAKER_01: I have got many photos.
• 5:49
  SPEAKER_01: I'll put some in the show notes.
• 5:51
  SPEAKER_01: Uh we'll do so uh nearby attractions to St.
• 5:53
  SPEAKER_01: Pancras and St.
• 5:54
  SPEAKER_01: Pancras International is again the British Library, it's not too far away.
• 5:58
  SPEAKER_01: Um, so yeah, it's a it's a very nice train station.
• 6:02
  SPEAKER_01: I have to say, it's one of the ones I enjoy taking trains from because generally we're heading off to Europe, which is always pretty good.
• 6:09
  SPEAKER_03: To St.
• 6:09
  SPEAKER_03: Pancras, literally across the road, is London King's Cross.
• 6:14
  SPEAKER_03: This is the principal departure station for the East Coast main line, and that will cover trains to York, Edinburgh, Durham, and Cambridge, Newcastle.
• 6:25
  SPEAKER_03: Um, it's a big big station, and it's you know I think to allow yourself plenty of time to catch trains from here.
• 6:32
  SPEAKER_03: I also think so.
• 6:33
  SPEAKER_03: Give some idea of times.
• 6:35
  SPEAKER_03: London King's Cross to York is about an hour and 40 minutes.
• 6:38
  SPEAKER_03: Um, King's Cross to Durham is two hours and fifty-three minutes, to Newcastle, uh two hours fifty, Wedding before hours twenty.
• 6:47
  SPEAKER_03: So that's the faster than about five hours from London Euston to um to Glasgow.
• 6:54
  SPEAKER_03: Um, London Kings Cross to Cape is about an hour and twenty minutes.
• 6:57
  SPEAKER_03: Very easy stations to catch from St.
• 6:59
  SPEAKER_03: Pancras and King's Ross right side by side, and it's only about five to ten minutes walk up Houston Road to Houston train station.
• 7:07
  SPEAKER_03: So these are North London stations, which are pretty close.
• 7:11
  SPEAKER_01: These are close together, yeah.
• 7:12
  SPEAKER_01: And I forgot to actually mention about St.
• 7:13
  SPEAKER_01: Pancras as well, uh, and King's Cross that they are both um both tube stations also and they're connected to six lines, um, through the Northern Line, Circle, Piccadilly, Victoria, Metropolitan, Hammersmith, and City.
• 7:26
  SPEAKER_01: And actually, from St.
• 7:27
  SPEAKER_01: Pancras, we've also got Thames Link, which we didn't mention, but yeah, so you so those stations are very close to one another.
• 7:33
  SPEAKER_01: And also, actually, King's Cross is very famous because it's also where you'll find the Harry Potter shop at platform nine and three-quarters, which opened in um 2012.
• 7:43
  SPEAKER_01: And it's also um the first Harry Potter shop, apparently, outside of a themed visitor attraction.
• 7:49
  SPEAKER_01: Um, it is very popular, loves loads of people lovely going to take that having the photograph taken, pushing the uh trolley into the wall.
• 7:56
  SPEAKER_01: Um, you do have to pay for that.
• 7:58
  SPEAKER_01: Um, but it is worth going and popping in if you're at King's Cross.
• 8:01
  SPEAKER_01: And again, actually, King's Cross station is I remember going to King's Cross in the 80s, and it wasn't a particularly impressive station, but they've done a really good job of it, just looks amazing now.
• 8:09
  SPEAKER_01: They've got some nice shops.
• 8:10
  SPEAKER_01: Um, again, looks really good.
• 8:12
  SPEAKER_01: So that's uh next one, I guess we'll go on to is Liverpool Street.
• 8:19
  SPEAKER_03: The Liverpool Street station is located in central London, uh near the city, and so the east of England, including uh counties of Essex and has locations like Chingford and Josh get out to Norwich, Ipswich, Southend, Cambridge as well.
• 8:37
  SPEAKER_03: Uh the Stansted Express also runs from Liverpool Street uh to the Stansted Airport.
• 8:43
  SPEAKER_03: I like this station because it's always light and bright and yeah.
• 8:47
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know why it just always seems like that to me.
• 8:49
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and uh so Liverpool Street is also a major underground station, it connects Central Circle, Hammersmith, and City and Metropolitan Lines.
• 8:57
  SPEAKER_03: Um so the train from Liverpool Street to Cambridge takes about an hour and 20 minutes, and to Norwich about an hour and 50 minutes, and they are both lovely train lines as well.
• 9:06
  SPEAKER_03: I've done that one quite a few times to Norwich from there.
• 9:08
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, and then uh Liverpool Street Station as well, it's near many London attractions, including Spittlefields Markets, the Bank of England, and the Barbkin and Whitechapel.

  SPEAKER_03: And this is in central the central London terminus, and considered by many to be the largest and busiest of the London stations.
• 10:22
  SPEAKER_03: Um Waterloo serves the areas south and southwest of London, and these include um Hampton Court, uh, Epson, Guildford, Weymouth, Southampton, and Portsmouth.
• 10:35

• 13:56
  SPEAKER_01: Um, so do you want to talk about some times to get from Merrillbone?

  SPEAKER_03: Okay, that's brilliant.
• 14:18
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, so that that's kind of that's covered the nine um main train stations that I want to talk about.
• 14:23
  SPEAKER_01: So hopefully that's given you a lot of background.
• 14:25
  SPEAKER_01: We're gonna just answer a few facts as well, commonly answered uh asked questions um about traveling by train in the UK.
• 14:31
  SPEAKER_01: But I just also want to mention that we have got a lot of information on the website.
• 14:36
  SPEAKER_01: Um, we've got a lot of articles um about passes, about how to save money on UK rail travel.
• 14:43
  SPEAKER_01: Um, and we've also got a um uh UK train travel ebook, which we wrote um recently updated, and that does really well.
• 14:52
  SPEAKER_01: So if you're interested in traveling in the UK by train, um I'd recommend that you pop over to the website.
• 14:57
  SPEAKER_01: I will put a link in the show notes uh for this episode so you will be able to get access to the UK train travel ebook that we've written.
• 15:05
  SPEAKER_01: So, should we answer some of the commonly asked questions that we get asked about?
• 15:09
  SPEAKER_01: So, one of the first things we we got asked about is where can I find information about accessibility and mobility access when travelling by train in the UK?
• 15:18
  SPEAKER_03: Well, it's a good question as well, and um there's a very good website called the National Rail Inquiry, it's not just for ticket and train information, it has all the information as regards every single train station in the UK.
• 15:31
  SPEAKER_03: So, what you need to uh is have a look at this side, and it'll give you information about um uh ramps and how to book access and assistance before you travel.
• 15:40
  SPEAKER_03: So it's all there in one place and what facilities are.
• 15:43
  SPEAKER_01: Brilliant.
• 15:43
  SPEAKER_01: So I'll again I'll link to that in the show notes to everybody.
• 15:46
  SPEAKER_01: So um, you know, we'll talk about travel passes and cards um that are available for traveling by train in the UK.
• 15:53
  SPEAKER_01: So um I just want to say in London, um, you've got the option of purchasing Oyster card or going contactless.
• 15:59
  SPEAKER_01: And we have again got information on the website about that.
• 16:01
  SPEAKER_01: Um, if you're traveling outside of London, you've got multiple travel cards that are available.
• 16:06
  SPEAKER_01: You can get area specific or general brick rail passes or global U-Rail or interrail passes, depending on where you, you know, whether you live in Europe or coming into the UK from outside of Europe.
• 16:15
  SPEAKER_01: Um and they're available for visitors from overseas.
• 16:18
  SPEAKER_01: So it you might be worth um having a look to see if those are cost effective if you plan to do um some rail travel.
• 16:25
  SPEAKER_01: Um, but again, I will link to our we've got specific articles about all of that, so I will link to the show notes about those.
• 16:32
  SPEAKER_01: So um one thing we did talk about um was we kind of mentioned briefly when we're talking about each of the train stations, is that we know that um the train stations are connected to the different um airports.
• 16:44
  SPEAKER_01: So if you're flying into the UK, obviously you're going to be landing in one of those airports um around London.
• 16:50
  SPEAKER_01: Um, assuming that's you know your destination is London.
• 16:52
  SPEAKER_01: So um what I didn't ask Doug was how long would it take you to get from those different um airports into London at the different train stations?
• 17:01
  SPEAKER_03: Ah, you put me on on the spot there.
• 17:03
  SPEAKER_03: Um okay, so uh Luton Airport, you catch training to St.
• 17:08
  SPEAKER_03: Pancras.
• 17:09
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, that'll take about 30 minutes.
• 17:11
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 17:12
  SPEAKER_03: Stanstead Airport, uh you go from Liverpool Street, I think I mentioned that.
• 17:16
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, that's about 50 minutes.
• 17:18
  SPEAKER_02: Yep.
• 17:19
  SPEAKER_03: Gatwick Airport is into Victoria, and I think it's about 30 minutes.
• 17:24
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 17:25
  SPEAKER_03: Uh Heathrow uh is about Paddington, which is about 20 minutes, but particularly for Heathrow, there's other options available.
• 17:32
  SPEAKER_03: You need to go like the Elizabeth line and the Piccadilly line, tube line.
• 17:37
  SPEAKER_03: So there's options um other than just mainline trains.
• 17:41
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, absolutely.
• 17:42
  SPEAKER_01: And again, we've got information about how to get from Heathrow and Gatwick into London on the website, uh, which again I'll link to.
• 17:48
  SPEAKER_01: And I guess what I did mention Thames Link before when we're talking about St.
• 17:52
  SPEAKER_01: Pancras.
• 17:53
  SPEAKER_01: Um, and I know it's something we've also been asked about is what is Thames Link?
• 17:57
  SPEAKER_03: Uh Thames Link is the name of the train service.
• 18:00
  SPEAKER_03: This runs from uh the Bedford area to Bryan and it goes through London.
• 18:06
  SPEAKER_03: Um, there's eight Thames Link train stations with tube connections.
• 18:11
  SPEAKER_03: Um yeah, it's a good service to use and it's a good sort of um alternative.
• 18:17
  SPEAKER_03: And if you want to travel through London and you don't want to go by tube and you want to stay above ground, yeah, it's a good one for that one.
• 18:24
  SPEAKER_03: Also, the London Overground service is uh is another option as well.
• 18:28
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and I actually we've taken the Thames Link before when we've gone from uh Luton to Brighton.
• 18:33
  SPEAKER_01: Yes, we did, yeah.
• 18:33
  SPEAKER_01: Um found that was a good way to do that.
• 18:36
  SPEAKER_01: So um I think that kind of wraps up everything.
• 18:38
  SPEAKER_01: We've talked about the train stations, we've we've answered some of the kind of commonly asked questions.
• 18:42
  SPEAKER_01: Is there anything else you want to add?
• 18:44
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I I will add one thing.
• 18:46
  SPEAKER_03: Um, obviously, for my railway days myself is rail staff in the UK want to help.
• 18:51
  SPEAKER_03: So if you've stuck at any station and you you know book stuck as to where to go and which platforms, ask away.
• 18:58
  SPEAKER_03: You know, that they are helpful stuff.
• 19:00
  SPEAKER_01: Excellent.
• 19:01
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, that's good.
• 19:02
  SPEAKER_01: So um this so show notes, I just let people know that um any of the information that we've talked about in this episode.
• 19:09
  SPEAKER_01: So basically about the different train stations, about the tickets, I guess we'll cover that.
