Default Farringdon to be London's busiest station

Compared with the southern TOCs, at Waterloo and at Charing Cross,
the terminal platforms at St Pancras (all three parts) and Kings
Cross are practically quiet rural stations. Charing Cross
dispatches just about as many trains in an hour from 6 platforms as
Kings Cross and St Pancras (except LL) combined do from 22 (or is
it 23 now?), and Waterloo, with slightly fewer non-theatre
platforms than KXStP, dispatches twice as many.


King's Cross mainline station only has 10 platforms at present. Although 0
has opened, 2 and 3 are out of use under possession.
