Does that count as staffed or unstaffed?


Errrr....


Judicious snipping alert!

For those who need everything spelt out, if a station has staff there,
but they are "inaccessible to passengers", that, in my opinion, is
hardly the same thing as an open ticket office & ticket hall.

All London Underground stations are staffed 24/7, except for possibly
Christmas Day when the network closes down, and Boxing Day for some
stations. A supervisor is on site at all times, for reasons of
security, and to allow contractors on site to do their nightly works.

Of course, once the ticket office closes you may well not see the
staff, but it doesn't mean they're not there watching over things.
