* From [[Baker Street Station]] (Stops A & F) down [[Baker Street]]. * There is a McDonald's right next to the stop at College Street/Blandford Street. * Stop on Orchard Street which is very convenient for [[Oxford Street]], particularly [[Selfridge's]]. (Change for [[Bus Route 113|Route 113]] or [[Bus Route 189|Route 189]] to [[Oxford Circus]], [[Bus Route 13|Route 13]] to [[Trafalgar Square]] and [[Aldwych]] or [[Bus Route 139|Route 139]] to [[Waterloo Station]]. * Next stop is after negotiating [[Marble Arch]], at the top end of [[Park Lane]].</td> <td> * On the northbound journey to Baker Street, if you get off at the first signed [[Marble Arch]] stop, be mindful that you will need to walk through the subway system. Better use the next stop on [[Portman Street]] if you want [[Oxford Street]]. * The northbound route runs up [[Gloucester Place]] which has very few shops. * It terminates on [[Marylebone Road]] between Glos. Place and Baker St, making it a short walk to [[Baker Street Station]] or [[Marylebone Station]].</td></tr> <tr><td colspan=2> * Stops at the Dorchester Hotel and London Hilton Hotel on Park Lane. Change at one of these stops for [[Bus Route 2|Route 2]] ([[Crystal Palace]]), [[Bus Route 36|Route 36]] * At [[Hyde Park Corner]], stops next to the [[Hyde Park Corner Station|tube station]] on the [[Knightsbridge]] arm. Convenient place to change between buses ([[Bus Route 9|9]], [[Bus Route 10|10]], [[Bus Route 52|52]] towards [[High Street Kensington]] or [[Bus Route 19|19]], [[Bus Route 22|22]] and [[Bus Route 137|137]] to [[Sloane Square]]).</td></tr> <tr><td colspan=2> * Travels along [[Knightsbridge]] and then [[Brompton Road]], stopping at [[Knightsbridge Station]] (outside [[Harrods]]), and at Brompton Square and the [[Brompton Oratory]]. </td></tr> <tr><td> * The northbound stop at [[South Kensington Station]] is adjacent to a large number of stops. * Within [[Locale South Kensington|South Kensington]] there is a convenient northbound stop at the [[Victoria and Albert]] for the [[museums]] (also useful for the [[Natural History Museum]] and the [[Science Museum]]). </td><td> * The southbound stop at the [[Victoria and Albert]] is good for the [[museums]] (inc. the [[Natural History Museum]] & [[Science Museum]]). * There is a single stop right outside [[South Kensington Station]] (if you walk out of the station into the arcade, turn right). There are lots of shops here including restaurants and newsagents which sell [[Saver Tickets]] and [[Travelcards]]. </td></tr> <tr><td colspan=2> * The route 74 stops at [[Gloucester Road Station]] are not on [[Gloucester Road]] itself but rather on the [[A4]] Cromwell Road which is a slightly longer walk from the station (but still not very far). * The stops at the Forum Hotel are convenient for the nearby [[[http://www.sainsburys.co.uk Sainsbury's superstore]]]. </td></tr> <tr><td> |

(The wait at this junction is really quite long, in both directions. If you want the next stop, might be best to get off at the previous and walk)
