As a companion to the stations which have lost their previous higher status are there stations which are now as grand as they have ever been?
My candidates would be Stratford, King’s Cross and London Bridge.
Stratford has trains to places never contemplated in olden days - Heathrow, Reading, Richmond and (with the Underground) London Bridge.
King’s Cross may have lost some services but is as good architecturally now as ever before.
And I do like London Bridge - the space, the wider platforms and, to this Central Division passenger still the wonder of seeing South Eastern trains to the West when coming into London Bridge from the south.
