ED to South Ken tomorrow morning

[Sue]

I have to be at the V&A for 9.45 tomorrow morning.

Since I retired that's like the crack of dawn to me!

Is it best to get train to Victoria from Denmark Hill then district line and if so what time should I get train?

Going to Alexander McQueen exhibition hooray! :)

ETA: wondering if I should allow extra time for rush hour etc??

Hi Sue, I had to be at Gloucester Road the other morning and went Denmark Hill to Victoria and then on the District Line. It took just over half an hour. Hope that helps. Polly

That's probably quickest route, but if it were me - and this is just because I hate rush hour trains and tubes - I'd allow a bit longer and take 345 bus from Cambeerwell to South Ken.

Why? Get a seat and no changing.

But. It does take at least an hour so I'd check TFL journey planner for how long it's currently taking at that time of day.

Supposed to be an amazing show, I was due to yo as part of a corporate party thing hut it was night that Michelle Obama decided to go so we all had to wait outside and then I ran out of time. Boo.

Thanks both!

Yes I'd much rather go on the bus but I'm worried about traffic and missing it.

Will see whether I get up in time to get the bus :))

Please God DO NOT go the bus route unless the trains are completely screwed up. Speaking from experience its very hit and miss (I do Denmark Hill or Peckham Rye to South Ken for work).

Your hour could be an hour and a half and its not exactly a direct route! Train quick and only two stops on the tube from Victoria so a sweaty 5 mins only to put up with....

Bus route here from vauxhall here http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?29,1085722,1086196#msg-1086196

I think the 345 is awful. But the 360 from vauxhall was great

I did it from Camberwell easily...

Whichever way you go, hope you enjoy the exhibition!
