I am going from Coventry to London (specifically Wimbledon) for one day. The way I see it my options are........
- Nat Express from Cov to Victoria. Taxi to Waterloo. Overland train to Wimbeldon. Taxi to grounds.
- Nat Express from Cov to Victoria. Underground to Wimbledon (but not sure what lines)
- Virgin train from Cov to Euston. Taxi to Waterloo. Overland train to Wimbeldon. Taxi to grounds.
- Virgin train from Cov to Euston. Underground to Wimbledon (but not sure what lines)
Any advice on easiest or quickest route, plus what day passes I would need would be appreciated.
In terms of cost, not bothered really. Nat Express is £30 for 2 to Vic, and Virgin is £64 for 2 to Euston.

Personally I think the best option would probably be coach to victoria and then underground (district line) to wimbledon - though if I remember rightly you don't actually go to wimbledon station, you go to the one before (could be wrong though) - if you're going to be travelling in London after 9.30 just get a one day travel card which will probably set you back about 6 quid.
