We're going to see the Foo Fighters at Wembley on Friday (blatant brag post), and looking at the website parking nearby isn't a good option.  I've driven to Wembley before, and it was arse, so I don't want to do it again anyway.

So, if we're driving down from the Midlands on the M40, where's the best place to leave the car and then continue in by train/tube?  Anyone got any suggestions (other than to use Google)?

Some Chiltern trains stop at Wembley Stadium. You can get these from High Wycombe, Beaconsfield, South Ruislip (as the Chiltern Line basically follows the M40).

If those trains aren't too regular, the A40 goes past Hillingdon station on the Metropolitan line - you can get that to Wembley Park.

Just checking to see what times the trains/tube runs until.  Tube is fine, they still run after midnight. Just checking the trains now.

Just have to make sure wherever we get the train from has adequate parking...

Think West Ruislip has a bigger carpark. Where I normally park for a trip to London.

Looking at the tube journeys, some are saying that "Planned engineering works are taking place".  Anything to be worried about, or just standard?
