2) Paddington:

The H & C platforms are basically the length of Paddington mainline
station away from the entrance to the Circle/District and Bakerloo
station.

A related question - say you want to go from Liverpool St to Paddington,
with the intention of catching the Heathrow Express.


Depends on how long it is from the next circle to the next H&C.
Anything over three minutes and it's definitely not worth it.


Would also depend on whether you are already in possession of your Heathrow
Express ticket.


ISTR that one can buy a ticket on the train.

Or am i thinking of the Stansted Express?

My advice would be to stick with rule number 1 for tube travel - Always
get on the first train. [with some exceptions]


Heh! A good rule, but it's the "some exceptions" that are all the fun ...
