Clapham Junction and trains

I love traveling on double-decker buses, but when you are in a hurry take my advice: don't take one. It's ten times slower than the tube (i realized that arriving late in the office today by half an hour just because i didn't want to wait 10 minutes for the next train in Lancaster Gate Tube Station). Anyway, London is beautiful from the front-window of a bus, but this afternoon i finally got myself on a London train from Clapham Junction to Waterloo. Traveling by train is somehow similar to the tube, but you get to see the tall buildings of London at high speed and not only on the London Lite pages.

Did you knew that "Clapham Junction" a train-station in the south Thames borough of Battersea is the busiest train station in Europe ? Well you do know. Yes it's hard to believe , but imagine a train station with 20 platforms where trains come and go every 3-5 minutes from each platform. Just like in a tube station , but above ground.
