Default Ticket gates at Finsbury Park

I saw the new gates being constructed. There is a passenger holding
area about 3m deep at the top of the stairs. I imagine the gates will
be locked open for Arsenal home matches. I don't know if anything
special is done at Drayton Park for such congregations.


Yes: they shut the station and make people walk to FP. Which is fair enough
- it really doesn't have the capacity to accommodate a footy crowd safely.
