No standard gates that I've ever come across are bi-directional at the

head-first into each other all the time!

The 30p turnstiles at station toilets.


Good point! I have almost walked into people using these - or more to
the point they've almost walked into me in a distracted fashion whilst
they were on their way out.

I must say that I'm a fan (if that's not too odd a thing to say!) of
the facilities at St. Pancras - very clean and free to use. I suppose
my usage of them is being subsidised by frequent Eurostar and EMT
travellers (such as yourself), stations shoppers and Champagne
quaffers - so thanks!
