That 2h stay wouldn't be so awful if it was between 2 pm and 4 pm or something but after 10 pm all the shops would be closed and there'd be precious little to do.
As someone who spent his teen years in suburbia and thus spent many a late evening/night on lonely rail platforms spending 20-30 mins waiting for trains (time that felt more like hours), I always found something quite unnerving about the whole atmosphere of rail stations at that time. There's mostly silence but the occasional noise tends to be a tin kicked down a tunnel, a shouting match somewhere in the vicinity, dogs barking.
