The trains approach the stations stealthily by speedily; they stop abruptly and the well trained Parisians (who probably because of the Revolution, never need to be reminded to let the passengers off first) embark, or disembark, at a raid rate; then the train flies out of the station.
The modern-day station over the road, meanwhile, shorn of its surface presence, is surely the most inconspicuous in London, especially given the labyrinthine nature of the Hyde Park subway, by which it is usually approached.
The whole station seemed galvanised by the music, and commuters moved briskly and cheerfully from A to B, in a way that would be very welcome on the Underground.

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.
Station access would be improved: more than 70 stations would be modernised (there are 107 stations on the 5 lines).
