* Alternatively exit the station by the openning on the east side, near
platform 0 and 1, on York Way. This is where taxis set down for the
sation. You could ask a cab driver here to take you wherever it is you
need to go. I'm fairly certain he would not mind, and that you would
not have to queue or even wait long.

I'm fairly certain he would mind!

Another thing about Kings Cross - when you go to the old tube ticket
hall, there are signs saying "No entry to Northern Line". *However, if
you go through the barriers and down the escalator to the Victoria
line, there is a sign on the left saying "Northern Line". So despite
what it says, it IS possible to get to the Northern Line via the old
tube ticket hall.

That route involves going through the new set of tunnels associated
with the new ticket hall. It would be significantly longer overall
than just walking to the new ticket hall at the top level, and would
cause massive congestion if significant numbers of people did it.

The shortest route would be to run down the up escalators that go from
near the Piccadilly line to the Northern line, but I don't recommend
that either :-)
