I'm am trying to figure out how to get from Earls Court to St Pancras Station

I have looked it up on TFL.GOV.UK for 2 September for an early train and it gives me 3 bus interchanges or two buses and a tube.

When i look at the map i can't see why it is not one tube ride on the piccadilly line.

Is the TFL site known to be unreliable or is it just that i am looking at leaving to early (4:30am) for the line to be open? :confused:

There you go :)

The TFL website has information for the first and last train on a line.

Tube drivers will still be in their bed at that time in the morning.

Wow, talk about fast help! Thanks

Darn it about the sleep tube drivers, think they would get out of bed early just for me :p:

Question, how are you getting to Earls Court in the first place?

Other than that here's the TFL page wiht all the night bus PDF's on it

Fastest way though is a taxi

Which though will cost you round about £20

I am flying in and getting a shuttle bus from the airport, was pretty good value actualy.

I think i'll catch a bus to the Hammersmith & City Line, Looks like it is open that time.

Is it hard to find the king's cross st pancras international from the tube? I'm assuming it will be well signed.

That is very well signposted. In fact the tube station should link direct to it.

Thank you, I never like to assume, we all know the saying about that word.

The tube exit comes up right at the front of both stations and is extremely well signposted.

Thanks, you have all been a great help. Also like to mention to anyone else looking at getting around London, Google maps is great, by going into street view you can see what the actual bus stops look like and surrounding buildings etc. Of course nothing compares to the experience of someone that has actually been there. Thanks again everyone.

You might consider walking - 1h30m
