Default location of the bombs?

I am interested in the timing of the bombs. Originally they were over
a span of 20 some odd minutes. Now they are claiming "nearly
simultaneous" explosions. Seems to me that one could get confused
reporting for two explosions a few minutes apart but 20 is a long time
for confusion, especially in Britain. If you have a 9 o'clock
appointment and show up at 9:15 that is VERY late.

Have any riders been interviewed and asked about the time of the
explosion? Specifically the Edgware explosion? I think if folks are
heading to work they would know the difference between 9 o'clock and
quarter past.

I'm pretty sure everyone has got a theory on the recent bombing but I'm just
wondering if there is a pattern and maybe someone can confirm if the
following could be true.

I understand the bomb executed on the Piccadilly Line was at the front of
the train - does anyone know if the Heathrow bound platform at KC is the one
closest to the Northern Line escalator? If that is the case the bomber must
have entered the platform from the main Kings Cross escalators and
immediately onto the platform, from there he entered a waiting train and
must have escaped as the doors were closing and exited the platform by
taking the short link onto the Northern Line escalator.

Were all the bombs planted within the door ways that were adjacent to the
platform entrances at Euston Square for the Edgware Road train, King's Cross
for the Liverpool Street train and finally is the Kings Cross Piccadilly
line entrance adjacent to the front of the train?
