It doesn't need to be a 500 (or even 300!) yard walk *outdoors* - the
majority can be done indoors. Simply cross the St Pancras taxi rank
and walk via the King's Cross platforms 9/10/11 building, and then
down platform 8 to the Underground entrance.

Except there are signs prohibiting it. On one hand it's a bloody cheek,
on the other it's private property and they could insist that all
passengers walked along the platform naked (to pick a random stupid
policy).

Is this a recent development? A week or so back I'd arrived at KX on
a number 214 bus northbound, and needed to get to the temporary St
Pancras Station. I did roughly the walk that Jason describes above -
in the other direction of course - and was surprised to notice signs
that the concourse at Kings Cross was only for WAGN and GNER
passengers.

(Since I use WAGN several times per week I didn't feel any compunction
in walking through the concourse... )
