Actually, I feel that there is a major difference - the tubes from LHR
start there so are empty, or fairly so depending on where you board.
The Sydney trains will pass through the airport stations already
fairly well loaded, I would have thought.

Changing the subject slightly, I was suprised to hear that lift access
is provided to the concourse area (middle level where tickets are
sold) at the international station but not to the actual platforms.
Can anyone confirm that I heard right?
