There was a recent thread here about getting to the Emirates stadium
by public transport.
The upshot seemed to be that depending on where you were sitting one
or other cf the many stations would he best.
Anyway, I was wondering if any other stadium in Europe is so well
served by trains and train stations?

Wembley? - it has three stations.
QPR will have 5 later this year. White City, Wood Lane, Shepherds Bush,
Shepherds Bush Market, Shepherds Bush Overground.
I'm not sure it's down to number of stations - it's really to do with
links in a network and capacity. Hence Berlin's Olympiastadion or
Paris's Stade de France might do equally well in giving good access to
the site of the stadium.

Regular users of that route know not to wander too far out along the
platform in the late evening, in case their service shows up as 3- or
4-car.
