Would you take the Google Transit from London Gatwick to Victoria Station?

by Neil MacLean on November 23, 2007

Google TransitI have been playing with Google Transit which now covers public transport in the South East of the UK, but sadly does not yet include trains. Ask it how to get from Gatwick Airport to London’s Victoria Station and it will tell you to take a bus. Just for the record – or in case you find this via Google search proper – there are a couple of train options: the Gatwick Express and the less well-known Southern Railway option. If you are on expenses or in a desperate hurry – or simply get a geeky thrill from flashing your ticket confirmation from your mobile phone – then by all means take the Gatwick Express. However, the Southern Railway is a lot cheaper (£6 per leg) and not a lot slower. Thank you. This has been a public service broadcast from the Travel PR bog. Have a nice day.
