Charing Cross

Beautiful old London Railway Station. Beautiful architecture. I like the atmosphere of large stations in London. I recommend a tour of the major train stations throughout London.

The station has a historical interior and exterior, which makes it different than others. Most importantly the train connects different South East areas through this. There are many facilities available, like clean toilets, male, female, baby changing, disabled. There are coffee shops, chocolate shop and small retail shop too. The station is mostly clean. It is moderately busy apart from pick times. The train time display works fine, sometimes update a little late but verbal updates are pretty fantastic and frequent. Enjoy 😊

A lot of history in this station, but also in need of some love and repair. Not a great range of shops available (and open) on site. Plenty of trains heading south of the river. Historic (albeit rebuilt) monument out front.

Zone 1 station. 6 platforms. Southeastern trains to Sevenoaks, Hastings, Tunbridge Wells, Ashford International, Hayes, Dartford, Ramsgate. Toilet and Wi-Fi is available in station. Coffee Nero, Boots, Burger Kings and other shops are inside of the station. Taxi rank and bus stations are outside of the station. There is a covered-footpath leading to Embankment station.

I like this station. Every train seems to leave on time. Plenty of food outlets all in a small space. Great location for access to covent garden or west end.

Darren from the ticket desk at Charing Cross was extremely helpful and courteous. It's an absolute joy to come across such a helpful and 'old school' staff member who has good manners and is also personable. Well done to him.

A nice railway terminus with both regional and local services throughout its 6 platforms. From my experience, platforms 1, 2, 3 and sometimes 5 are for local services while platforms 4 and 6 are for regional services. The station does have a worn-out feel to it, and could do with a small refurb (not the platform clocks though, they are fine). Overall a decent terminus which I always use when heading to London.

One of the distinct areas of great marvel of engineering within the sub-terrainial London transport network.
It is always amazes the ingenuity of these projects especially how they compliment, augment, and beautifies the joy of logistics within the City and it's immediate environ!!!
