Show Notes
Network Rail wants passengers to stay safe at stations – not running for their trains – and to avoid delays to trains at London King's Cross, the hub for the East Coast main line. So it is trialling removing trains from the departures board three minutes before departure.
In response, I have been trialling how long it takes to walk from the concourse to the mysterious platform 0.
