My recollection of the current configuration is also not clear, Roland.
If they have indeed moved all the machines to one side of the gateline
that is hardly convenient to people coming from King's Cross/Euston Road
rather than St Pancras who all now have to walk past the gateline to
access any ticket machines.

Those from Kings Cross will have walked past machines in the original
ticket hall. Almost no-one enters the Western ticket hall from the
street outside. In any case, it's only a few mote feet, and if we are
to have foot patrols by helpers, isn't it better to have all the
machines close to each other.

Not if they followed the signage on the square to the entrances near Euston
Road either side of the junction with Pancras Road.

None of them do. Everyone makes straight for the entrance closest to the
main shed. And if they enter by the eastern of those two, the ticket
machines are almost straight ahead of them when they get to concourse
level.
