Kings Cross Thameslink was a serviceable interlude before the grand opening of St Pancras International almost 20 years later. Surely it makes sense to push for reopening East Brixton - now that Medussa has closed. The cost of tram-like interim platforms up there would only be a few thousands, surely?
I expect someone better qualified than me will come along to say I'm talking balls, but I wonder if, as a completely new station, any new structure would have to meet present day standards in terms of accessibility and so forth. Hence 'tram like' platforms might not be an option.
