Well, if he was after London's **first** railways, St Pancras isn't the
place to go, being a relative newcomer and beaten by London Bridge, Euston, Nine Elms (replaced by Waterloo), Paddington, Shoreditch/Bishopsgate (replaced by Liverpool Street), Minories (replaced by Fenchurch Street), Fenchurch Street, Bricklayers Arms (long closed), Waterloo, Maiden Lane (replaced by Kings Cross), Kings Cross, Pimlico (replaced by Victoria), Victoria, Charing Cross, Blackfriars (first station on south side of the Thames), Broad Street and Cannon Street!

At this point in time St Pancras is by far the most interesting terminus to the general public at whom this program was aimed. Cheerz, Baz |
