The Anonymous Widower

Waterloo’s Disgrace

Behind the Premier Inn at Lambeth are the old Eurostar platforms at Waterloo International station.

They have been virtually derelict since services transferred to St. Pancras in 2007.

I suppose they must be one of most expensive ruins of recent years.

If we were going to move the services to St. Pancras, why did we build such a grand station as an interim measure?  Especially, when the French just made do, with what they had at Gare du Nord. And of course, they still do!
