Default "Queen to open St Pancras station" today

Upon the miasma of midnight, a darkling spirit identified as Roland
Perry gently breathed:
In message , at 18:40:02 on
Wed, 7 Nov 2007, John Rowland
remarked:
I presume we won't be allowed into most of St Pancras when the Eurostars
start running, but are we allowed to explore it now?


The "airside" part of St Pancras is well under half of the lower level
of the new station. Upstairs it's also a little under half, but visible
from the domestic sections.


I believe part of the advertising for St Pancras as a destination in
it's own right is that people will be able to watch the trains come and
go. Of course this will require the various shops, station staff, etc.
not to stick tacky paper signs and notices all over the glass walls.
