New Update. Just letting all of the kind folk on here,who offered me helpful advice, know that we arrived with very little problems at all. Our journeys on the mainline trains were smooth and time flew by really quickly. The underground was a little tense with so many people around us in such a...
Thank you again for the generous amount of information, and for putting in a little research. I think (hope) we are as ready for the journey now as we can be.
Thanks. Second time round this information sheds even more clarity. Probably best that i stick to using the TFL site as advised. Should then avoid any further confusion.
That's great. Thank you.

Continued confusion!!!
The TFL site shows, for example, the 14.23 Euston to Charing Cross as a 7 minute journey.
The National Rail site shows the 14.24 (i assume the same as the 14.23 just stated differently??) shows the...
This is what i have done. It states average journey time of 7 minutes, and further down, Max journey time of 7 minutes. Not clear if this is solely the journey on the train though. I am happy with the journey time on the underground now that it is clearer to me. Simply trying to ascertain the...
Thank you. I hadn't considered just how little the National Rail website actually shows.
May i just ask how long it takes to get from the main Euston Station, to the underground platforms for trains to Charing Cross (obviously i only expect a rough guide?) We arrive approximately 14.12 and if...
I have been using the National Rail planner, and typing in London Euston to Charing Cross, or London Euston to London Bridge, from around 14.15, and then only looking at the journeys that do not include a change of trains whilst on the underground. You are correct with the frequency of trains...
Thanks for the information. It's our preference to avoid any changes on the underground, and with our initial train arriving around 14.12 it looks like there are only 2 trains from Euston to Charing Cross direct that fit in with our timetable. One at 14.24, arriving at 14.42 allowing only 3...
Thank you. It had initially looked like we would be rushing a little between trains, but being able to travel via London Bridge has now cut down that concern. Thanks again.
A quick follow-on question related to my thread of a few weeks ago, which i am using to post this query. Do i have to travel from Euston Underground to Charing Cross for the main Charing Cross Station? Can i instead travel via London Bridge? This would allow more time in between trains and much...
Fantastic. I am now about as relieved and confident as i can be regarding our upcoming journey. Many thanks again.
In fact, let me just take this moment to thank everyone for your input. I have learnt quite a bit today, and in the process realised just how supportive a group of strangers can...
Thanks John. With each little piece of feedback i am becoming much more knowledgeable in rail travel, and in the process our upcoming journey is looking much more pleasurable once again. Thanks so much for your input.
Update. Just noticed something else which i hadn't queried. On the reserve...
Huge thanks. Being so awkwardly organised as i am, any little thing that appears it could cause a problem starts to concern me. I fully understand the Maltese Cross logo now, and i think i am confident enough in accepting that we don't need a physical ticket detailing the London to...
