I'll be interested to see how this discussion goes. I must say that, as a user of the two stations mentioned, I am *not* stuck by how 'separate' the different sections are. I think they feel like single stations, albeit with different branding in some sections. Given that you can get from any point in the station to any other point without leaving (right?) I'd say they are both single stations with different services offered.
That's a personal opinion, based on how it feels to use the station as a passenger, not based on how the stations are operated by TfL/NR, or how they are regulated and ticketed. --- https://hdyc.neis-one.org/?spiregrain [email protected] On Thu, 10 Apr 2025, at 8:10 PM, Michael Tsang wrote: > Hi all, > > In the past few months I have been mapping railway stations in detail, and > some of my work has been removed by another mapper citing some form of > official truth, sometimes breaking the stop area relations. > > The railway stations involved are Paddington, Liverpool Street, etc., where > the Elizabeth line station and the Network Rail station are operationally > separate (different entrances, gatelines, operators, rows in the Elizabeth > line timetable), but are treated as one station by the regulator and for > ticketing purposes.
