NR Tube stations challenge?

Post by The Orange One »

A challenge to visit all the LU stations with interchange to National Rail or LO services through stations of the same name? I believe this is the complete list:

All stations from Harrow and Wealdstone - Queen's Park
Paddington x2
Charing Cross
Waterloo
Elephant and Castle - should this be included?
West Ruislip
South Ruislip
Greenford
Ealing Broadway
Shepherds Bush - again, should this be included?
Liverpool Street
Stratford
Upminster
Barking
West Ham
Whitechapel
Cannon Street
Blackfriars
Victoria
Kensington (Olympia)
West Brompton
Wimbledon
All stations from Gunnersbury to Richmond
Farringdon
Moorgate
West Hampstead - again, should this be included?
London Bridge
Canada Water
All stations from Amersham to Rickmansworth
Harrow-on-the-Hill
Kentish Town
Old Street
Balham
Brixton
Vauxhall
All stations from Euston to Walthamstow Central
Heathrow T123, Heathrow T4 and Heathrow T5 - again, should this be included? Especially Heathrow T123 as the station is Heathrow Central.

Perhaps there are some glaring omissions.
All London buses: 23 hours 25 minutes (with Adham, David, Josh and Tangy)
Holds some alternative challenge records. Not sure which ones.

That's an interesting idea - although I think you missed Seven Sisters and Highbury and Islington

Tube trains! With shared track services of course. Bear in mind the inclusion of Ken O!

I see a possible start as:

Amersham :arrow: Harrow-on-the-Hill :arrow: Northwick Park :arrow: Kenton :arrow: Harrow and Wealdstone :arrow: Warwick Avenue :arrow: Royal Oak :arrow: Paddington :arrow: Paddington :arrow: Marylebone :arrow: West Ruislip :arrow: North Acton :arrow: Ealing Broadway :arrow: onwards.

So Marylebone is excluded as the LU station is totally separate from the NR station?
Just checking I haven't missed the concept somewhere here.

I agree with Sam - both of the stations in question have entrances/exits direct to/from the NR station
