How to get in Hereford
Herefordshire is a rural county and this is reflected in its transport links to Hereford. Roads from Gloucester or other places tend to be slow and bus transport from neighbouring counties isn't exceptional. There are two main rail lines, one north-south, from Manchester to Wales and another branch from London, the Cotswolds, via Worcester and finally Hereford. Although fast Intercity trains ply this route, once you are on the single track sector (from Oxford to Hereford) the average speed goes down dramatically, preparing you in effect to life on the slower lane, a feature of this charming county and city. There is a more frequent train service from London(Paddington) to Hereford by taking the express trains heading for Cardiff and changing at Newport onto the line for Hereford. The average journey time from LHR to Hereford by car would be over 2 hours, depending on traffic. Travelling to Hereford from London, by train, would take just over 3 hours.
