Supposedly the busiest railway station in the UK

- if you look at the network map, you can understand why. All trains from/to Waterloo and Victoria pass through here.

Have you actually wandered around in Clapham Junction, or have you always just passed through on the train?

I try

not to change trains there if possible, as that long connecting tunnel between all the platforms makes me a bit claustrophobic!

I’d say that 99% of the time I sail through on the train :)

I’ve ridden through there a few times as well, going between Victoria and Gatwick. I’ve seen the signs for it, but never hopped out. I wonder if I should count it as a been there?

Hmmm, not sure. Are there hard and fast rules about how to “bag” a place? :) I’ve added a few Tube stations to my been there places, but they have all been ones where I have either entered or exited the station.

I'm thinking probably not

It probably wouldn’t be fair to bag a station that I’ve only passed through.

I got thinking about it, I’d be able to bag a lot of places if I were to do that. I think maybe next time that I’m in the Greater London area that perhaps I can hop off the train at Clapham Junction and then be able to call it officially bagged.
