Would anyone like to guess how long West Hampstead to Queen's Park
might take?


Peter

Queens Park to West Hampstead is scheduled to take 15 minutes. It
will be quicker to change at South Hampstead as that is only 5-10
minutes away from West Hampstead. Stay on the train for as long as
you can..!!

A few further notes to explain other comments:

Euston is not served Mon-Sat to allow trains to divert to Stratford,
therefore providing connections from Camden Road to Stratford with
Willesden Junction. Euston can be reached by changing at Highbury &
Islington.

Willesden Junction not served by bus service A, as it will be quicker
for passengers to change at Queens Park or South Hampstead to reach
destinations to Gospel Oak. There is too much traffic in the
Willesden Junction area to make it reliable for a rail replacement
bus.

Service B will not terminate at Blackhorse Road and has been extended
to Walthamstow Central Station via Walthamstow Queens Road.
