And even more miffed with their solicitors, if the plans for the
existing station to close were not bought to their attention before
buying?

Depends how much of a train buff the solictor is. Pointing out local amenities
that may close is not their job.


That is part of the job of a conveyancer. They should be undertaking
searches of current and future developments which may impact upon the
property. Hertfordshire County Council have had the Croxley Rail link
in their plans for a fair few years now available for anyone to find.

Whether all solicitors undertake full searches is another matter of
course.
