Default "The West" to Surbiton by rail?

Anyone recommend a good dropping off point to transfer to either

mainline
rail and/or tube, please?


Bear in mind that, this weekend, there are *NO* mainline services between
Reading and Paddington, due to engineering work at Slough. However, the
South West Trains service from Reading to Waterloo (change at Clapham
Junction for Surbiton services) is running.

The only thing that I would point out is that it is Reading Festival

weekend
and the town centre may be very busy. Therefore you may find it easier to
leave the motorway at junction 10 and take the A329 into Wokingham and

drop
him at Wokingham rail station, where the Waterloo service from Reading

also
calls.


Very helpful. Thanks.
