Sorry if this has been raised previously, but .....
Why are the platforms for Euston departures only announced 10-15 minutes (or less) before departure times?
It results in a mass rush from concourse to platform, with all sorts of potential for accidents. It also puts older/ infirm passengers at a huge disadvantage when seeking seats.
I know platforms sometimes have to be changed at a late stage - but surely not in the last 20 minutes - and stock has to be cleaned between arrival and departure, but why not let passengers queue on the ramps down to the platforms [which I'm sure used to happen in BR days].
Finally, is this something I should raise with VT or NR?
