Getting the connection at Canada Water for the tube was a game changer. At last I could easily get into the West End and not get clobbered when changing for the tube at London Bridge or Charing Cross.

However, I now use Whitechapel for the Elizabeth line which has made it even more faster and the Lizzie line trains aren't claustrophobic for me.

I also like the fact there's a one change of train to get to Ealing, Hanwell, Southall and Heathrow, nor do I have to get on a packed tube to Stratford.

However, I do miss the direct trains to East Croydon which makes it easier to travel down to Sussex. Now I either stay on the Overground and change at West Croydon for the tram or change at Norwood Junction.
