Ah sorry, I misunderstood - I managed to miss it anyway!

West Kensington from a T4 start is highly annoying. But, that's only because of Olympia. Bethnal Green has the potential to be annoying. Watford, Croxley and Amersham get a mention because they were the ones that I missed.

It's a bit of a bump, but I have a valid opinion now that I have attempted it, so I wanted to have my say

What's the issue with West Ken? There's time to switch at Baron's Court and still have a fairly easy jog to Olympia

You still have to make a special change just to visit it, that is annoying, surely.

You generally have to make many changes to visit all the stations

Indeed another sad GWR story

so THATS what I was doing wrong!

Most changes have a return of more than one station though... The annoying ones are generally the ones that have a low return per change ratio.

On that basis double backs would be even worse - once you've visited a station, changing to double back would gain no new stations - e.g. doubling back at Uxbridge, then getting off at Ickenham to run to West Ruislip

King's Cross, only because ever since the rebuild, going from the Victoria/Piccadilly lines to the NR stations, there is a bloody long walk which takes ages.

Not if you go the old way, it isn't. http://diamondgeezer.blogspot.co.uk/201 ... 31_08.html

in terms of normal use (and most confusing signposting for those not in the know), Waterloo and King's Cross.

For Tubechallenging, Ken O without a doubt.

James, is it still possible to go the old way?

Yeah, Matthew and I tend to use the old way when changing from the northern line to St Pancras NR station.
