Acceptable Forms Of Transport Non Tube

Post by DaveWalton »

The ones i can think of are

Foot
National Rail
Tram Way
Bus or Coach (Public service not hired)
Air plane - Only because its totally unfasable as you have to wait 1 hour and there are no planes between londdon city and heathrow


Non acceptable obviously
Taxi
Private Car
Any walkking aid such as roller skates

not sure where water taxi comes into it but would be slow anyway

Services like the Heathrow express that aren't valid on travlecards work too

Bearing in mind, of course, that HEx is free to do T123 to/from T4, and there's also the "Heathrow Free Flow" zone on the buses, not that that really affects tube challengers as you'd have a ticket ;)

But sure, if you're mad enough to want to spend another £14.50 on a HEx single, go right ahead ;)

Cheers,

Barry

It IS ludicrously expensive. One of my many route permutations involves Heathrow Connect, which is cheaper, but slower, and calls at more stations.

But if you want the record that much, surely you'd be prepared to pay £14 for it

Unless you want to alight at Ealing Broadway :).
