==================================================================

London has more main line train terminals than any other city in the world. This is largely down to the competition between the railway companies and the difficulty of acquiring the land to build them on. And when the stations were built, many were not that grand, nor were they that conveniently sited.

Join Stephen as he tells you about the dozen or so main London stations. Hear about how they came to be built – and rebuilt. And learn about some of the oddities you can find in them.
