Clapham High St. Chosen today due to the new extension from Surrey Quays to Clapham Junction opening today. Wasn't this voted as the worst station in London back in th early 90s?

Full marks to Tubeboy Answer: Location: Clapham High Street - entrance [Chris M] Bonus answer: The first London Overground train serves the station today I wasn't able to find out whether Clapham High Street was voted the worst station in London or not. I did find out that most people seem to agree that in the 1940s Liverpool Street was the worst major terminal to arrive at. In the 1990s St Pancras held that dubious honour, but since the upgrade everybody seems to like it. In the present day, people seem to hold Tottenham Court Road in low regard, particularly when it comes to exiting, with Bank, Mile End, Covent Garden and Elephant & Castle also unloved. There is no consensus regarding the worst station for cyclists, but most people seem to agree Lewisham is the second worst.
