Dear all

Sorry to be a bore, but having been avoiding Bank and the Northern for
two or three years I need to go from Woolwich Arsenal to Euston tomorrow
morning, arriving at Euston by 10.10. My "tin leg" is not sure which way to go

Journey Planner tells me that via Bank is the fastest and least changes
for pax with no mobility issues
But DirectEnquiries.com tells me there are 32+33 steps between the DLR and Northern lines.

If I "can use escalators but not stairs" she wants me to go either via
Green Park or Stratford - StP, both of which seem long ways round (and of
course the Highspeed leg would cost full fare, since the Freedom Pass is
not valid and it would be before the Senior Railcard applies)

London Bridge is hard work in the rush hour when I use a walking stick and carry bags.

Is there an alternative at Bank – involving fewer steps, not necessarily step-free.
Or another, easier alternative route?

When I look on a Journey Planner, it seems to be just as quick to change at
Green Park as at Bank, so that's probably the best option. Obviously your
Freedom Pass will apply for the whole journey.

For example, if you leave Woolwich Arsenal at 9:13, you get to Euston at
9:58 via Canning Town and Green Park, or 9:59 via Bank. This is with the
"slow walking" option set.
