Information on London Kings Cross Station



London King's Cross railway terminus opened on 14 October 1852, designed by Lewis Cubitt, costing £123,000, and occupying the site of the former smallpox and fever hospital.
The original London terminus of the East Coast Main Line was at Maiden Lane which opened two years earlier.

Compared to its flamboyant neighbour London St Pancras, King's Cross is a very bland station, standing on the junction of the A501 Euston Road and York Way, in the Kings Cross district of the London Borough of Camden, just bordering on the London Borough of Islington.

Its role as the London terminus of the East Coast Main Line has given King's Cross a special standing among the other London terminus stations, its famous trains of the past include the 'Flying Scotsman' and the 'Silver Jubilee', the romance with the Gresley streamlined 'Pacifics', which were coaled and watered near the Gasworks Tunnel. In 1962 King's Cross welcomed the 'Deltics', in 1977 the HSTs arrived, twelve years later on 3 March the Class 91s arrived with the Inter City 225 sets.

The London terminus of the East Coast Main Line is 393 1/2 miles from Edinburgh Waverley and 524 miles from Aberdeen. Its main routes being East Coast Mainline to the North and East of England and Scotland, and major Cities including, Cambridge, Doncaster, Leeds, Newcastle, Peterborough, Hull, York, Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Dundee, Inverness and Glasgow.

There are the normal shops and kiosk in the station and these include, pizza's, pastries, bars and restaurants, newsagents and money exchange facilities.

King's Cross station has 11 platforms, nine for main line service and two for suburban services, from the main concourse stairs and escalators lead to the Underground station know as King's Cross St Pancras tube station as it connects to it neighbour London St Pancras International Main Line Station.

King's Cross St.Pancras is one of the busiest stations on the London Underground and served by more lines than any other station, these include; the Circle Line, Hammersmith & City Line, Metropolitan Line, Northern Line, Piccadilly Line and the Victoria Line.

Kings's Cross Thameslink station closed on 9 December 2007 due to the original station platforms and tunnels needing extensive work to bring them inline with the new Thameslink Programme, services transferring to a new Thameslink station next door at St Pancras opening the same day.
