Ok if you've got a season ticket

As expected
For as long as I can remember this has going to be rebuilt, but at the moment it's the same as it has been for the past fifty years. It's one of the busiest Commuter stations in the country, so don't expect to get a space in the car park after 9 o'clock in the morning and if you need a ticket for a morning journey buy it the night before or allow plenty of time. The queues for the ticket office and machines are very long and time consuming. The tunnel under the track to the platforms drips when it's raining and there's no seperate newspaper stand now; so you have to use the cafe, which means queueing behind a load of yuppies having complex coffees manufactured before you can hand over your 40p for 'The Sun.' No wonder the 'Metro' is so popular. No page 3 but at least you can get a copy before your train goes. On the positive side, the station is full of character and you can spot a lot of famous faces waiting on the platform
