I wouldn't have thought this would have ever got of the ground with potential security issues. An underground station would be the perfect place to plant explosives. In London they don't even have rubbish (trash) bins in the stations.

Perhaps only pre-approved retailers can deliver to it. That system's still open to abuse though.

Coin-operated lockers are commonplace in commuter stations - this is no different. Your argument seems like a problem specific to the UK, or other countries with such draconian laws.

I don't think it relates to law, just common-sense after decades of terrorist attacks in London. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_terrorist_incidents_in_...

I'm guessing that the risks are far lower in the US

In this case, GO Transit runs a commuter rail network (on the surface) so underground bombings shouldn't be a concern.

OK - we have left luggage in large train stations but all bags are subject to security inspections. They have to go through a TSA body scan ;)
