Voila - the much requested bus link between Waterloo and St. Pancras
materialises in time for Eurostar's move. Though I bet the majority of
passengers using the 59 from Kings Cross down the Euston Road won't
have anything to do with Eurostar at all!


I bet your right. The average visitor will have an undergroud map & use
that.

Though if they are travelling by tube from Waterloo to Euston and look
at a Tube map they'll miss the fact that it's easier to travel on the
Bakerloo line from Waterloo to Oxford Circus, then onwards on the
Victoria line to Euston - easier because there is a cross-platform
interchange between the Bakerloo and Victoria lines at Oxford Circus.

A regular uk.railway reader meanwhile is likely not to have missed
this fact as it comes up ad nauseam!
