We had conflicting directions from the TFL sites. One said the trains were not running. The other said that Overground lines w delere mostly cancelled, but some underground would be running, with delays.
We sent an overseas visitor by a cab company to a local station. The fall back was that if the trains were not running, a member of our family would fetch her and drive her to the coach at Liverpool street bus station.
It took us a day or two to realise that the train station was not the coach station.
The train goes to the Liverpool street train station. Where is the coach station? It is shown as six minutes from the railway station. Hm. She said she does not want to carry luggage and will take a taxi.
But when I tried to take a taxi from Kings Cross to the adjacent station, taxis would not go. The journey was too short to make it worth my while, or theirs. And the traffic direction system was one way in the wrong direction.
We waited to hear from her. She messaged she was expecting her first underground train. So far, so good.
She sent a picture on Facebook
