Im meant to be going to London tomorrow but in light of recent events Im not sure if its going to be possible?? Im going to Kingcross then I normally get a tube to Brixton then a bus from there. What do you think the state of the transport system will be by then? Please keep it serious after a few daft posts in other topics.
Thanks for any help

Well London cannot go long without public transport , im sure the buses will be back on tomorrow , however if it was me id probally not bother as it will be well busy on the roads if the tubes arnt running yet. this will have a knock oneffect for a few days.

What you going for.
If its holiday, I would leave it.
If its a job, ring them in a couple hours when its died down a bit and I am sure they will understand.

Our london office has confirmed it's not opening tomorrow so i'd say it's likely there will be big trnasport problems still  Can you not just rent a car or drive your own etc?

Tomorrow I predict some tube stations are going to be closed because of damage to the lines.
Mainlines I expect to be open tomorrow.

MY girlfriend has just received an email from the top brass where she works informing them all that Kings Cross will have most of its train lines working by this evening but the tube will remain shut for repair work. They are hoping to have the all tubes working by Sunday at the latest.
