INTRODUCTION

On Saturday I attended an event at Student Central, formerly known as the University of London Union (ULU), on Malet Street – for more details please click here. Student Central is walkable from many stations, and as it is far more than just a student venue, this post aims to set out these various connections.

STATIONS FROM WHICH IT IS WALKABLE

Student Central is walkable from the following stations:

• Russell Square – Piccadilly line
• Tottenham Court Road – Central and Northern lines, soon to be Elizabeth line.
• Goodge Street – Northern line
• Euston – Northern and Victoria lines, mainline railways.
• Euston Square – Circle, Hammersmith and City & Metropolitan lines
• King’s Cross St Pancras – Circle, Hammersmith and City, Metropolitan, Northern, Piccadilly, Victoria, main line railways
• Warren Street – Northern and Victoria

OTHER CONNECTIONS

For those coming into London from outside, the best routes from the main places at which you would arrive and which are not within walking distance are:

• Finsbury Park if on a stopper from Cambridge or Peterborough – straight choice between Victoria to Euston or Piccadilly to Russell Square
• Moorgate – Metropolitan/ Circle/ Hammersmith & City to Euston Square or Northern to Euston
• Liverpool Street – Metropolitan/ Circle/ Hammersmith & City to Euston Square or Central to Tottenham Court Road.
• Fenchurch Street – Circle line to Euston Square.
• London Bridge – Northern line to Euston
• Victoria (including the Coach Station) – Victoria line to Warren Street
• Waterloo – Northern to Tottenham Court Road
• Paddington – Hammersmith and City to Euston Square – do not be tempted by the fact that the District & Circle lines have a station officially designated as Paddington – the Hammersmith and City platforms are structurally part of the main station.
• Marylebone – walk to Baker Street and get and eastbound train to Euston Square.
