IMHO The rebuilding of Liverpool St was the excellent. The result is
the finest of London Terminals.

Up to a point, Lord Copper!

You should try using it with a bicycle, as we in Cambridge commonly used
to. The managed to replace a cycle friendly ramp down to the platforms by
steps *up* and an escalator and stairs down. Not exactly helpful or
considerate.

Ok, there is a ramp but it's a long way round and through a shopping mall
where cycling is not allowed. And no ramp at all from the Bishopsgate side.

Typical of the attitude of the railways at the time from the operators of
what was then the main terminal for trains to the UK city with most
cycling.
