How can go to heathrow underground from heathrow terminal 1?

Can someone explain me how to use metro to go from heathrow to pancreas.?

  • I saw that map for metro, I doesn`t make sense for me since I don`t have metro in my country and I decided to learn it on my own so on my next travel to England I will try to use them alone. So could you explain me how things go when it comes.

  • Answer:

    The pancreas is an organ of the body, not a railway station. If you mean St Pancras Station, then at Heathrow, follow the signs for the Underground. As shown at the bottom of that map, it is called the Underground, not the metro (and most of us Londoners call it the tube, because it's like the trains are running through underground tubes). Look at the map. Heathrow is in the bottom left-hand corner, on the Piccadilly line (the dark blue line). Follow that line up and to the right and you will see that it goes through King's Cross St Pancras. So there is your answer - it's on the same line and you don't have to change trains. That map is very out of date, in fact - Terminal 5 at Heathrow has opened since, and that means there is an extra station. The reason that map shows a bus service to Terminal 4 is that the tunnel to Terminal 5 was being constructed at the time, and it is now open again. http://www.tfl.gov.uk/assets/downloads/standard-tube-map.pdf is the current map. When you get to the Underground station, buy a ticket for Zone 1 from a ticket machine or buy one from a ticket window. This will cost £4.50. Then follow the signs to the trains. Use your ticket to get through the automatic ticket barrier. Put it in the slot on the front of the barrier marked "Tickets", just underneath the yellow circle on the top of the barrier, and put it in printed side up, brown stripe side down. It will pop up from a slot on the top of the barrier. Pick it up, the gate will open, and walk through. Get on any train that is not going to Heathrow Terminal 5. Not that it matters much - Terminal 5 is the end of the Piccadilly line and in a few minutes the train will go back the other way. Stay on it until the train arrives at King's Cross St Pancras. This will take about an hour. Then follow the signs to the "Way out", or St Pancras Station, whichever you want. Underground stations are all very well signposted so it is difficult to get lost. When you get to the ticket barrier, same again - except that as it is a single ticket, the barrier will probably keep it and open for you anyway. If you're going to stay in London for any amount of time, look into getting a Travelcard or an Oystercard as depending on how much travelling you do, this is usually cheaper than buying single tickets all the time. A Travelcard for a week or more will probably be sold to you as an Oystercard, anyway - the best way to think of an Oystercard is as a sort of electronic container that Travelcards can be stored on. It is also possible to charge it up with money to use by "pay as you go", the right amount is deducted from your Oystercard when you go through the ticket barriers, and the screen on the barrier will display how much has been deducted and how much you have left on your card - clever, eh? To use an Oystercard, you don't put it in any slots, just touch it on to the yellow circle on top of the ticket barrier, which is the Oystercard reader. http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tickets/14416.aspx shows all the ticket prices. As you can see, "pay as you go" is a lot cheaper than buying single tickets. This is done to encourage people to have an Oystercard as it saves queues for buying tickets. The price list refers to Zones, and if you look at the map I linked for you, there is pale grey shading in the background that shows where the Zones are.

We call the Metro, the Underground and each line has a name and a colour. From Heathrow catch the Piccadilly (blue) line straight through to Kings Cross St Pancras Station. The journey takes about 60 minutes

Ok number one it's not a metro, the map that you have provided is of the London Underground or The Tube. Number two, the map is of the tube lines and the stations. What is there not to understand? Depending on where you are and where you want to go to, you look at the lines available and plan your journey. So you go to the station and buy a ticket, go down to the platform and get on the train when it arrives. Get off at your stop. What else were you expecting to do?
