       Having seen a screen grab someone posted from twitter of the big
       game day, just had a look for this Sunday.
       There aren't any trains near the Stoop - posted this as a reply
       elsewhere but in case people are banking on the rail network
       working....it isn't.

       You missed the closest station off your list... Surbiton (plus
       the 281 bus runs from there to Twickenham).

       Or live on the 281 bus route - Tolworth to Hounslow.

       At some point "bespoke" has taken on an entirely new meaning.
       It seems to have joined "modernised" in meaning worse.

       That would work for me to get there, but heaven only knows how
       long you'd have to wait to get one back after the game!
       Also, what route would it actually take, given that Station to
       Stadium - part of it's normal route - will be closed?

       Normally they split the route in two. The half we use starts
       opposite The Timberyard on London Road and goes to Surbiton. I
       assume the other direction starts on Whitton/Warren road
       somewhere.
       It might not be split into two; it might just make a large
       Northerly diversion but I don't suppose that matters really.

       The 281 runs normally on Stoop match days. It’s only when
       there’s games at the Big Stoop it’s diverted.

       Indeed. I keep forgetting which thread/game I'm posting on.
