Well deserved too - especially now the front is all open. If anyone hasn't visited recently and gets the chance to spend a few minutes, spend it wandering up and down the steps outside following the engravings for 'Liverpool to Liverpool'.

Also, general criticism of the improvements. While the old taxi rank has freed up a lot of space, the new facilities shouldn't have been placed there. St Georges Hall next door currently has empty lodgings alongside the stations, after residents complained of noise. NR could've purchased the empty units, knocked back the station into the hall and used this extra space to house coffee units, waiting rooms etc.
As the taxi rank is still spare, NR could've then killed the capacity bird with the same stone. Moved P7 across, created a new P8 next door where the current P7 is, and then rename P8 and P9 into P9/10. Result - an extra platform for IC services and helping with LM/EMT/TPE services in the peak, as well as if VT start the xx33 from Euston by 2011.
