Kings Cross Info

[junediamanti]

Londoners or seasoned rail travellers help is required!  It's not 
for me, but for a friend (which almost sounds like I'm about to ask 
something rude <g>.

I'm looking for information about the King's Cross train station. 
More precisely, I'm trying to find out how one gets from Platform 10 
(the real one) to platform 4 and then back to 10 -- as in, how many 
staircases one has to climb up or down, if there are any 
ticket barriers or any other remarkable elements in the way, and how 
long it takes to get to one platform to the other.

Now I've used Kings Cross many times, but not over the last few 
years, so unfortunately, the exact layout of the platforms has 
somewhat dropped out of my mind and I can't see it in my head 
anymore.  I can see the concourse, and the platforms in front of me, 
but not the numerical order of the platforms - are they left to 
right for instance?  Sorry can't remember.  

So here's a plea to people who do use it - especially fans because 
they will be able to see it.

Feel free to mail me off list if you want - and any suggestions at 
all are most welcome - web sites whatever.
