Default Waterloo gateline

I expect that the automatic wide gates will be bi-directional
though based on other stations.
Which other station? None of the wide gates I know are bi-directional but
they are mainly FCC or TfL gates.

How about the FCC gates at Huntingdon?

For each of the two gatelines, the two narrow gates are set for one
direction or the other (usually both the same way in the peaks, one each
way at quiet times), but the wide gate is always left in
first-come-first-served mode, so in the peak it is the *only* way to
pass the gateline in the contra-peak direction *but* remains available
for peak travellers needing it.
