 HPL: Essays - Harry Potter - In Search of . . . Grimmauld Place
Grimmauld Place was therefore probably about three quarters of a mile from Kings Cross, somewhere to the north of it, and closer to either Camden Town or Caledonian Road station than it is to Kings Cross.
Kings Cross is served by the Underground as well as the main line station: indeed, with eight platforms, it is one of the biggest on the Underground network.
Kings Cross railway station, and a passage at the beginning of OP10 makes it clear that Kings Cross is only a twenty-minute walk away — for a large group encumbered by a lot of heavy luggage.

Complicating matters is the building of a new ticket hall for the Kings Cross St Pancras tube station and construction related the new Eurostar terminal; depending on how you are travelling to Kings Cross, you may need to build in even more extra time.
But, while it is not complicated, Kings Cross is a busy and bustling place, so if you have not been there before, you may want to give yourself some extra time.

 How many bombers? The map says: one two
And Russell Square is on the Picadilly line (blue), which also passes through Kings Cross.
But the subway map suggests one person could have planted all three bombs simply by strolling around in the Kings Cross station and then surfacing to plant the final bomb on the bus on nearby Tavistock Square.
If the latter was headed north, it's conceivable that all three bombs were dispatched from the South Kensington station in the south west corner of the Circle Line, which is where all three trains might have crossed at roughly 8.30AM.

Kings Cross: The line follows Phoenix Road in Somers Town and then turns into Midland Road to pass under the greatly enlarged St Pancras station by way of the new 4-lane link that meets the realigned Goodsway.
At the same time it avoids adding to the already overcrowded Brixton Road outside the tube station: transfer from bus to tube at Brixton is already one of the heaviest in London and the situation is made worse by the narrow pavement on the northbound side and the impossibility of building a subway.
The bus station, rather than the railway station, is the preferred terminus because bus arrivals in Peckham outnumber rail by 20:1 and transfer from East-West bus to CRT is seen as important traffic.
