Time to travel outside Heathrow to London suburbs (lemmy.world)

I'll be travelling through Heathrow later this summer and have an 8 hr layover. How long would it take to get to the suburbs in north or south London like Enfield Town or Sutton?

Why those places? Seems like you only want to go there if you had friends or family there. If not then it'd be much easier and quicker to get into central London or somewhere on the Piccadilly or Elizabeth lines

Yeap, I'd say Elizabeth line into central too. Piccadilly is fine, but doesn't have A/C and is slower, I think.

Does the 8 hours exclude check-in time? If not, that's not much time to see central! (Even 8 hours is a bit of a whirlwind)
