In the couple of days after the incident. There was a visible British Transport Police presence on the platform and elsewhere around the precincts of the station. Presumably in order to provide 'reassurance' to the travelling public? I noted that this presence was only there during the peak commuting times of the day and not at the same time the incident actually took place, around lunchtime. When thankfully, the frequency and volume of train passengers is comparatively low.

The PR value of several uniformed police officers patrolling the precincts of FH station is beyond doubt. But wouldn't logic dictate that they were present throughout the day and not just when they're going to be most conspicuous to the travelling public?
