The only problem is the long trip over "the rest of the UndergrounD"
to get there.

Also, there is nothing particularly remarkable about Chesham when you
get there, except perhaps the Old Town, but that is quite a long walk
from the station.

I would second others' recommendations of the Docklands Light Railway

So would I.

And it is well worth visiting one of the pedestrian tunnels at Greenwich or
Woolwich though now that the DLR goes under the river the stations aren't as
convenient for this as they once were
