Thankfully some of Paddington's platforms remain 'open' permitting access without having to go through the ignominious process of asking permission to get on the platforms! The extreme country end of platform one is a great spot to witness the comings and goings from the station through the throat. Whilst, not a particularly pleasant location nobody seems to bother you whilst standing there. 802005 is seen arriving with the 1P22 13.02 from Oxford.
