Those pictures look a bit fake - but I have not been there to prove it so...

They don't look fake at all, especially when you consider different people have contributed to the album :s

And they're not fake anyway...

They are certainly not fake, I was there on Wednesday! The footbridge is a walking hazard due to the vinyls placed on the bridge floor and the whole station is a nightmare to get around. Bloody Homebase.

At least the station looks like a place you'd want to catch a train from...

Reminds me of various metro stations in Hong Kong and Toronto with various sculptures, murals and the like dotted about to liven them up.

Apart from the trip hazard wires to the lights I think it's pretty cool, at first I thought it was an art installation. I spent 90 minutes on the station today, so filmed some of it. I will produce a 3-4 minute film for next week.

Was there two weeks ago and they were just starting - had no idea it would look like this in the end. Plus, thank God they have got rid of the ugly sanwich shop on the main concourse as well.

I iwsh they would start removing the dead pigeons from the wire mesh below the roof. Every time I go there there always seems to be a few new ones there.

Looks ok & and all publicity is welcome.

At least that awful & out of character buffet effort near the Settle bays has gone.
