I'd rather it was like that than freezing, smelly (OK, that's the

The train shed in Euston is just as freezing and smelly. The "shops
area" in paddington is no more freezing or smelly than the hall in
Euston, and probably is actually warmer as its fully enclosed.

That's a disingenuous argument.

If someone goes to Paddington, buys a ticket and waits for a train,
they end up spending their time in the freezing, smelly train shed -
unless they make a particular effort not to.

If someone goes to Euston and does the same, they will end up waiting
on the unfreezing, unsmelly concourse [which is also fully enclosed],
and will only have to enter the train shed when they're already
walking to their train.

No, that's a disingenuous argument. There's no particular reason to
wait on one side of the glass wall than the other. Any more than
people have to wait in the suburban platforms shed at Euston, even
though they do.
