Hi Stu,

as i live in central london i know the mess it is like, so i would definately get the train the whole way, i know it takes bout 5 hours from blackpool and the train is only 10mins from Euston station to Earls Court....it cost me £55 quid return for blackpool.then add £10 each way to go first class.cheaper than petrol and also you can go asleep. and have a drink
hope they have a good time
