Is it quicker to walk from Earl's Court to Kensington Olympia or get

Or even walk from Olympia to West Brompton and overground from there?
I'm not sure how often overground trains go but I think West Brompton
is a lot closer to Earl's Court than Olympia

Woah, this is all sounding very complicated - any able bodied person
can (and dare I suggest should!) walk it no problem at all!

This street map shows just how close everything is:http://www.streetmap.co.uk/newmap.sr...&y=178696&ar=N

In the bottom right hand corner of the map you can just see West
Brompton station - click on the 'Large Map' link to show a wider area.
Anyone arriving at West Brompton on a mainline train and heading for
Earls Court merely has to exit the station and the Earls Court
exhibition hall is immediately visible opposite - one definitely does
not need to take the District Line from West Brompton to Earls Court
station!

A small pocket A-Z map is an incredibly useful accessory for both
visitor and Londoner alike.

No need to be sarcastic, I do have an A-Z. I was just wondering if the
Kensington Olypmia announcer was giving the best advice, sometimes
rail staff don't. Or maybe they can't because everyone's going
somewhere different and the best way won't always be the same for
everyone. I just wanted to check I was right about the distances
because I'm not very intelligent
