TRANSPORT for London has announced that 28 train stations – including
two in the Croxley Rail Link


Is the full list available anywhere? Have googled around, but can't find
anything other than a few individual stations.


Isn't it marked on the map? I saw a map the other week with a distinction
between step-free from train and from platform, presumably the latter
have a step up/down from the train. In that context, is Watford Junction
step-free from the train?


It has a white background symbol, so presumably only to the platform, not
the train. Also, I assume that S Stock and 378s have different floor
heights, so even if it's step-free for one, it may not be for the other. I
wonder, how closely do the floor and platform have to match to be classed
as step-free?
