I use trains on a daily basis. I can assure you that depending on length of platforms and number of train carriages and passengers exiting or entering carriages and using lifts and escalators it could take 8 minutes. Unfortunately once a train pulls in lack of technology does not allow passengers to teleport to the new Dart Station. However knowledgable regular train passengers know the quickest routes to take which could shave off 5 to 6 minutes. It is therefore fair to state 8 minutes as a maximum!
