Don’t get me started I work on trainsFWIW, for our across the pond friends and one last touch on it;
King's Cross is a train station.
St. Pancras is a train station.
King's Cross St. Pancras is an Underground station for the both of them.
99% of people who have traveled through there would consider it all just one station.
You can enter the underground from both of them and they are literally separated by one very small road.
Love a bit of train chat.
if only there was a thread for them that could do an update from me tomorrow morning..oh waitFWIW, for our across the pond friends and one last touch on it;

As I said, I was being pedantic, but accurate - in reality it doesn’t matter though, I just like scrutinising newspaper articles.And to add to this. Most trains in England do not go directly to destinations, it's very common needing to change from a main line to a branch line. So any of this nonsense "you can't get to the site from London........directly by train" is just stupid semantics is like saying "You can't drive to France from England"

Oh I see haha, I’m very excited for EWR. I do feel like this park will be revolutionary in terms of transport connectivity and there are so many opportunities, let’s hope they’ll exhaust them.This wasn't directed at you.
I have posted a few layouts for the park and have had several people try to "well actually" me. The key bit of information people are overlooking is that when the project gets NSIP status it will completely change the current status quo. Chances are the majority of visitors will come to Wixams station and shuttle bus directly to the park, but many things will change when EWR is finished. It's very rare a theme park has one train line on its doorstep let alone two. The options are incredible. It's very important we look at the future and not the current status quo. I have been putting all this info in my twitter thread
I feel like it’ll be redirected but it could be close, adjacent connections do exist. For the station, that whole line is meant to be upgraded and that station was planned to close or remain open to a local train service only. Now they’ll probably upgrade it or close it and build a new station where it’s needed.Manor Road runs directly through the site, I’m guessing they’ll want to have this road closed off or redirected?
If they were to use the Kempston Hardwick station I’m guessing it would have to be completely rebuilt to handle capacity? And maybe renamed I suspect.
No that's a public road. With houses on. As I said above I expect Wixams to handle all the crowdsManor Road runs directly through the site, I’m guessing they’ll want to have this road closed off or redirected?

pick it up. Anyway, the key to this story is that England is a very small, though very populous, country, and travel (especially with the rail l
American morning commute lolIt feels big to us. An American will do a 3 hour drive like it's nothing and a Brit will do a 3 hour drive like it's the worst thing to ever happen.
