I have to travel to Croydon next week. tfl's Journey Planner's
best suggestion has me bussing to Uxbridge, Tube to Hillingdon, then
some mysterious express bus to Victoria, thence rail to East Croydon.
A bit over two hours.

Poking around various maps I wondered about Piccadilly from Ux to
Earl's Court, District to Wimbledon, and Tram to Croydon. No idea yet how
long that would take.

Anyone (Paul?) have a better idea?

Met Line to Kings Cross, Thameslink to Croydon? Don't know if CTRL
building has stopped that.

Met Line to Kings Cross, Northern Line to London Bridge, Southern
Railway to Croydon?

I don't think you'd get any advantage taking a train from West Drayton
or Hayes & Harlington to Paddington...

Those mysterious buses from Hillingdon (Oxford Tube + another) station
seem to come every 10 minutes though. You could take the (horribly
infrequent) U2 to get there from near to where you live, without putting
a 1 stop Met line leg into your journey.
