Britain's grandest railway stations
Six Victorian masterpieces still in daily use.
Britain invented the railway station as a building type, and the great Victorian termini are still in everyday use: St Pancras (Gilbert Scott's gothic palace), Liverpool Lime Street, York, Newcastle Central, Edinburgh Waverley, and Glasgow Central. They are operatic statements of railway-age ambition; all are worth a deliberate detour.
