According to the stats on the 'Corporate' section of the TfL website
(http://tinyurl.com/3y56uo), King's Cross St Pancras tube station
handled 52.51 million passengers in 2006. This sounds like a lot, but
just for comparison it handled 71.503 million passengers in 2005 (and
77.564 million in 2004, which is its outright peak).

At first the 2006 figures took me by surprise

There was also the Thameslink blockade for the first half of 2005 - so
many users who otherwise use the Thameslink lines within central London
had to get on the tube at Kings Cross.
