travel to reading from harrow on the trains?

Answer 1

Reading - Western to Paddington, then Circle , Bakerloo or Hammersmith & City underground lines to Baker Street (Circle line involves least number of stairs!) then Met line to Harrow-on-the-Hill - OR, Bakerloo direct from Paddington to Harrow and Wealdstone - it depends mainly on which part of Harrow you want.
P.S. That 140 bus doesn't look much like a train..... /

Answer 2

Reading to Paddington, as stated before. There are many stations in Harrow. Centre of Harrow is served by a station on the Metropolitan line (Circle from Paddington , change at Baker Street - Amersham trains do the journey to Harrow-on-the Hill non-stop). Harrow and Wealdstone, in Wealdstone, is served by the Bakerloo line direct from Paddington (no need to change at Queen's Park as one answer suggests). There are also a lot of other stations - if you can be more precise as to where you are going, I can leave further info.

Answer 5

You could use Travel Direct journey planner at

Decide which looks the best option and print it out.

Of the answers already provided Circle to Baker St and Met to Harrow would be the quickest once you are at Paddington.

The above should be reversed have just reread the question!!!

Answer 6

I lived in Reading for years.

You have to look at a railway map to understand the situation.
I could go from Reading to London in double quick time - about 24 minutes.. Or I could travel through the west at a crawl and stop at every station.

The London-Reading service was regular, but never very impressive - crowded and dirty, bar and restaurant sold out after 15 minutes.

But to be fair, I have not travelled that line for over 8 years, so perhaps things have changed.......
