Step By Step Maps Of The Underground.

Will be going to St Pancras soon, either coming from London Bridge or Victoria, with a small but heavy wheelie bag.
Is there such a thing as visual guide to underground stations, such as a cartoon? Something that would show you how easy/difficult they are to negotiate. I do remember going from St Pancras to London Bridge once (Victoria was closed) and it was a very complicated route, and took ages. I believe there is work on the Victoria escalators this week?

You can "walk" around St Pancras and Victoria on Google Street View.

Thanks. I'm not sure that would cover it, but thanks anyway.

London Bridge to Kings Cross (St Pancras) is one train on the Northern Line (5 stops). The change from mainline to tube at London Bridge is lengthy and involves quite a bit of walking - even with the improvements that are half finished.

Victoria to Kings Cross is one tube on the Victoria Line (5 stops). Access to the tube is via a short-ish staircase and one escalator (there are works going on in the ticket hall at Victoria at present. I haven't been there for a month or two so I don't know what it's currently like).

Access from th etube to St Pancras is lengthy but fairly straightforward.

Thanks Newjudge. Will probably stick to what I know best, Victoria to St Pancras. At least I know the route.

you've not said where you're coming from, but would a change to a bedford-bound thameslink train at east Croydon not be an option? takes you straight to st pancras......

Quite so, mush. Having a choice of London Bridge or Victoria certainly indicates that East Croydon may well be on jennykenny's route.
