What train station from Watford into London

    Watford Junction to Euston then take the Northern Line Underground to Charing Cross. Less than 5 minute walk to Trafalgar Square :)

    Sorry I should have said take London Midland to Euston, not Southern

    Why Watford, why not think Stanmore Tube station , straight into Charing Cross.

    Or Edgware , straight to Charing Cross. Both have reasonable parking on a Sunday

    The only station I know. Thought someone may come up with a better idea. I'll check it out.

    Down to Junction 5 on the M1
    South bound on the A41 , runs parallel to the M1
    Rht onto the A5 , well sign posted Stanmore OR Edgeware
    ( have walked between them in the distant past)

    personally would try Stanmore , easier parking

    That's very strange.

    Put Stanmore train times into google and from one of the first items returned you will find the answer.

    But of course there is no need to do that...

    The answer to your question is : Every five minutes or so.

    I was putting stanmore in the train line site and it wasn't recognising the stanmore station.but I found it in the end. I thought they would be a lot less frequent on a Sunday but of course Sunday in London isn't much different. Thanks.
