Erm.. read my post again.
This was Brighton to Victoria on 11/9/2001 at the TUC conference.
It is strange that he jumped on at Hassocks in your example. But he did quite often get the train straight from Victoria and jump into his car on the internal road as you mention, right outside my office in the blue wooden building that straddles platform 7/8
Fair enough. He did get on at Hassocks on the opening day (it was a 3pm-ish departure from Victoria, the slacker) of the 2001 Labour conference.
It pissed me off that the papers ran with him catching the train to Brighton captions to the photos, but I guess it's true. Just not the train all the way front London. And maybe he was hotelled inland?
