Highlights of the London Euston Station
Opened in 1837, the London Euston Station was the first intercity railway station in London and the terminus of the London and Birmingham Railway. In the 1960s, the station was demolished and replaced with a new station designed in an international modern style, including accommodation for an electrified West Coast Main Line.
3 portions of the original station remain: the Portland stone entrance lodges, a war memorial and a statue of Robert Stephenson by Carlo Marochetti. Other highlights include the Piscator statue by Eduardo Paolozzi and stone benches by Paul de Monchaux. You’ll find several catering units and shops throughout the station.
