More than a railway station

Over 33 million people have travelled through St Pancras International in 2008, making its first full year a huge success. Learn more about its history and how it became a 'Destination Station.'

St Pancras International is the 'jewel in the crown' of a much larger project called High Speed 1 that connects Britain to the high speed rail network that stretches across Europe. It is being called a new golden age of train travel.
