I'm afraid that if it was choice between an average UK airport and an average UK rail station, it would have to be the plane every time. But I agree that a nice shiny ICE on new track would win over both.

For me,
'I'm afraid that if it was choice between an average UK airport and an average UK rail station, it would have to be the plane every time. But I agree that a nice shiny ICE on new track would win over both.'
I would have to take the cheapest option and go by car.
John.

Yes, I may have sounded a bit.....well,... damning of the whole thing. But no, I too am pleased that St Pancras has had such a wonderful rebirth. To think that not long ago they were going to knock it down! Criminal! The facade is a National treasure.....and long may it remain.


I Do hope that it's the "new gateway" to the North..........but I won't hold my breath.......(sorry) there I go again!
