Participant[quote=svelte]Thanks Dave!
We’ll see how much luggage we end up taking this time, as my wife didn’t want to drag it all through the tube again this trip. If we can minimize the # of suitcases, we may take your advice!
[/quote]If luggage is an issue, I’d go the Leicester Square – Northern Line route. It’ll plop you down in Euston Station closest to the trains.
Any way you slice it you’re going to be dragging your luggage through Heathrow and Euston. So, adding Leicester Square to the mix shouldn’t be too much additional trouble. Just my opinion.
Have fun.

ParticipantThe train from Euston is the most obvious way to go since it’s the fastest (about 2-3 hours). However it is expensive. The bus/coach from Victoria ( try national express) is about 1/4 the cost of the train but the journey takes about 5 hours.
So you have to do a trade-off time versus cost.
You can save a lot going by bus, but it takes a bit longer.March 13, 2011 at 11:43 AM #677385ParticipantThe train from Euston is the most obvious way to go since it’s the fastest (about 2-3 hours).

What is the best (read: quickest yet reasonably priced) way to get from Heathrow to Liverpool?
[/quote]You may also want to explore the option of renting a car from Heathrow. The convenience of this option (especially when you have luggage) is often overlooked. And with modern smartphones & googlemaps the previous concern of getting lost on the roads there is no longer such an issue.
Of course, public transport may be a more relaxing (and authentically crappy english) option. Especially if you relax with a nice cup of tetley’s from the dining car…
