Default Euston Station Underground upgrade a joke.

Agreed. I really like Euston Square in that way, though I think it
will be a bit less impressive when alighting from the new stock
rather than the classic A-Stock there.


I don't quite see the connection between the stock you are alighting
from and the look of the station. Will St Pancras be any less impressive
because you're alighting from a modern Eurostar train?

In any case the current A-stock ambience is that of the 1990s
refurbishment. At least the S-stock won't have those noisy compressors
clattering away, and hopefully will have given you a more comfortable
ride.
