Recently I've noticed that a mixture of automatic and manual ticket
gates are being installed at City Thameslink. What I'd like to know is:
1 - why the gates at the Holborn Viaduct end are installed in a position
such that one of the ticket office windows is subsequently located in
the 'paid-area' of the station (once the gateline goes live),



For payment of excess fares? Such windows are common.
