Interesting that they are running Javelins every 7min up until 2am.
They must think the midnight crowds will take a while to disperse -
or just making sure they get everyone away? (I still think departures
from mainline stations to the rest of UK are too early for many people
staying until the end of the late-night sessions, but the fact you can
roll over tickets to the next morning probably means camp beds for
many).

Aren't many of the events staged late in the evenings, to suit US TV
schedules? And then the crowds of spectators may have a slow, longish
walk to get to the station.
