In the main its very good - I note your sense of humour extends to
including platform 9 3/4 but doesn't go as far as listing Grand
Central as an operator out of KX!! :-)


Yeah, if you can show "York Road closed 1932" then surely you can also
mention "Grand Central - starting 2032".

York Road actually existed, something in the future never has.

I thought people here might be interested in the diagram I've made of
King's Cross and St Pancras, showing the passageways and routes around
the whole complex in the style of the tube map (I know a proper
floorplan would have been much more useful, but that turned out to be
way too hard). Links and a bit more explanation are on my blog:

I like it - and its a nice touch to show York Rd (closed 1932)!

I assume the blue parallel lines are cycle routes (two way) (;-)

You do realise that U is not a name, it's just Burmese for "Mister"?

It'll be one of those intentional typos publishers make to detect illegal
