Train travel from London Euston to Coventry

It’s easy to get overwhelmed when navigating train stations you’re not used to; that's why our train travel guide familiarises you with each station you’re visiting to ensure you breeze through the process and can focus on enjoying the train ride. 

Departing from London Euston

As the southern terminus of the West Coast Main Line, Euston station can get rather busy. You can reach the station via the Underground’s Victoria and Northern lines or get to nearby Euston Square on the Circle, Metropolitan and Hammersmith & City lines.
  • Finding your platform: As a highly busy station, platforms change dynamically. Make sure to check departure boards in the main concourse or in the outside plaza. Slower commuter services – like LNR – tend to depart from Platforms 12–18, while express services like Avanti usually depart from Platforms 1–7 and 12–15.
  • Grab a bite: You’ll find a handful of familiar chain restaurants and cafes at Euston station. If you’re looking for something different, try The Signal Box for hearty breakfasts and elevated British staples.

Onboard trains from London Euston to Coventry

The train from London to Coventry offers a slice of English countryside accompanied by classic Victorian engineering. Avanti’s express route runs alongside the Grand Union Canal and the busy M1 motorway, while WMR’s service takes a more peaceful, rural route. You’ll catch glimpses of the Wembley Stadium arch and the Watford Tunnel on both services before the routes split after Milton Keynes.
On the Avanti route, look out for views of the Canal and the M1 at the Watford Gap. You’ll also plunge into the Kilsby Tunnel on this route.
On the WMR route, you’ll pass through Crick Tunnel and Hunsbury Hill Tunnel while also being treated to postcard views of rural Northamptonshire.

Arriving at Coventry station

Coventry station has two main exits to consider for your onward travels:
  • The East Exit in the original concourse. This is best for heading to the city centre, Coventry University or Greyfriars Green.
  • The West Exit is at the opposite end of the platforms and comprises several exits across different levels. Take the lifts or stairs down to the tunnel to exit directly into the Bus Interchange for local buses; head straight out to the Warwick Road exit for the Cycle Hub; or head upstairs to access the multi-storey car park.

A ten-minute walk will take you from the station to the city centre, but there are plenty of local buses and taxis near the station's main exit if you'd prefer or need to travel a little further afield.
