Kings Cross, Gerrards Cross all the placenames in the UK from Yorkshire downward including "Cross" denote the overnight resting place of the funeral cortege of some English queen from the middle ages. Yes, Kings Cross is in London, yes it is a shitehole and are you really surprised given the original settlers of Australia were British that they used the same names. Its been developed at the moment and is in a real state but you never know, re-generation of the area might just work.

Kings Cross in London cannot be twinned with a town as it is not a borough; it is in Camden (St Pancras before 1965). Do you mean two stations that are twinned? They are refurbishing the magnificent old Midland Grand Hotel which might help the area, and it is home to the British Library. It has a few things going for it but is rather seedy.

It takes about five minutes to travel from Kings Cross to Euston by Victoria or Northern Line but you should allow a few minutes extra for going up and down escalators. Tube travel between the two stations will be included in your ticket to Watford. Tubes are busy at rush hour times and not so bad in the middle of the day or in the evenings. Often train companies allow more time for travelling between stations than is necessary, so if you get there sooner, you may find you can get on an earlier train, depending on the limitations of your ticket.
