Default St Pancras 'Midland Road'

If the underground passageway went any further to the MML side of the
station, people heading for the Kent side would have to double back,
and more importantly, MML passengers would miss the shopping complex...


I'm rather assuming the tacky chipboard-walled shops in the ground floor
passageway (and the portakabin First Class Lounge) will be swept away
once the station gets a bit closer to completion. And there aren't any
shops between there and the MML buffers (apart from a couple of equally
temporary looking stalls selling warmed up cornish pasties etc).

But I agree that you don't want to dog-leg the Kent domestic passengers.

The main criticism is how far away the MML platforms are from the rest
of the complex.
