Incidentally, I note an interim stage in plans for Waterloo to be

this isn't going to make much difference.

If it is 10 23m coach-lengths, that'd fit a double IC Desiro, surely?


For some reason though platform lengths are normally described in terms of
20m car lengths, so a 10.444 needs a '12 car platform'...
