Lots of HP whoppers in Kings Cross - can never be on a list of good train stations.

Hmmm, I may have got this wrong after googling it

Not ready until December 2020. Seems a very long time to just dig a tunnel.

I do use this station occasionally in the summer and it is a real pain to be dropped off at while the works are going on.

Yeah, it’s pretty much unrecognisable from what it was like just a few years ago - totally new concourses, street entrances and platforms.

Every time I say something nice about Utrecht station, people are quick to point out that it used to be shit. Will be good when the building work on the east side of the station is finished.

It’s probably Headcorn

i like london bridge now but it’s very cold

First one that sprung to mind as a great station was York, proper golden age of steam vibes.
Worst is East Croydon, it can’t have been designed by humans.

You can’t see the nice bits of Brighton Station, because it’s been added to so much over the years. There’s a secret engineering works under the station where they used to build trains (and later the BMW Isetta bubble car).

Nice. Is that the bit where the tubes come out?

That could be anywhere.

Liege-Guillemins has a pretty cool feel, like being inside a huge futuristic whale-skeleton (a lot of the pictures online seem to make it look a bit more generic than it really is)

(I have spent too long there waiting for missed connections to actually have any warm feelings towards it though)

And there’s that crappy Harry Potter thing.
