I suppose the IRA bombing campaign against London targets would have
done a lot to change traffic arrangements such as that at Paddington.
Sadly, the Islamist threat that replaced it makes it all the more
important to keep road vehicle flows out of stations. :-(


Yet there are road vehicle flows in a few stations still - Edinburgh
Waverley for one.



Ssshhh! Don't tell anyone!

Although it is difficult to see how Waverley could be accessed by cars
and taxis in any other way, given the confines of the site.
