  • Kingís Cross station London.
    DUKAS_105641692_EYE
    Kingís Cross station London.
    King's Cross railway station, also known as London King's Cross, is a passenger railway terminus in the London Borough of Camden, on the edge of Central London.
    The station was opened in Kings Cross in 1852 by the Great Northern Railway on the northern edge of Central London to accommodate the East Coast Main Line. It quickly grew to cater for suburban lines and was expanded several times in the 19th century. It came under the ownership of the London and North Eastern Railway as part of the Big Four grouping in 1923, who introduced famous services such as the Flying Scotsman and locomotives such as Mallard. The station complex was redeveloped in the 1970s, simplifying the layout and providing electric suburban services, and it became a major terminus for the high-speed InterCity 125. As of 2018, long-distance trains from King's Cross are run by London North Eastern Railway to Edinburgh Waverley, Leeds and Newcastle; other long-distance operators include Hull Trains and Grand Central. In addition, Great Northern runs suburban commuter trains in and around north London.
    In the late 20th century, the area around the station became known for its seedy and downmarket character, and was used as a backdrop for several films as a result. A major redevelopment was undertaken in the 21st century, including restoration of the original roof, and the station became well known for its association with the Harry Potter books and films, particularly the fictional Platform 9æ.

Some 500 metres of "extensive" damage was caused during the night to overhead power lines in the Hanwell area of west London, Network Rail said. The damage is understood to have been caused by a Hitachi test train running from London to Bristol depot at around 10pm on Tuesday the 16th October 2018.

    Liverpool's Giant Arachnid Invasion
    LIVERPOOL'S GIANT ARACHNID INVASION

    It may look like Liverpool is under attack from giant spiders from outer space, but in fact the appearance of this giant creepy-crawly, on the side of an empty office block near Lime Street Station, heralds the start of La Machine, a three-day piece of street theatre and part of the city's year as Capital of Culture.

    The 18-metre, mechanical arachnid has been designed and created by French puppet street theatre company, Royal de Luxe, the same company that presented London with the procession of the enormous mechanical Sultan's Elephant in 2006 (see related Rex sets), bringing the centre of the capital to a standstill.

    Weighing in at 37 tons, the spider will descend the side of Concourse House on Thursday to be moved to Liverpool's new arena, where it will "wake up" on Friday, before exploring the city in the evening.

    However, this is just part of an extensive piece of street theatre that will feature performances, sights and sounds at various landmarks round the city, culminating in a "spectacular finish" on the Sunday.

    Just as hundreds of thousands of spectators took to the streets of London for the Sultan's Elephant, so many are expected to fill Liverpool's centre to catch a glimpse of the eight-legged beast, although those suffering from arachnophobia may choose to stay at home.

    The La Machine project was commissioned by arts company Artichoke for £1.8 million, with the spider being created in Nantes before it was shipped to Liverpool to be assembled in a secret location.

    Weighing in at 37 tons, the spider will descend the side of Concourse House on Thursday to be moved to Liverpool's new arena, where it will "wake up" on Friday, before exploring the city in the evening.

    However, this is just part of an extensive piece of street theatre that will feature performances, sights and sounds at various landmarks round the city, culminating in a "spectacular finish" on the Sunday.

    Just as hundreds of thousands of spectators took to the streets of London for the Sultan's Elephant, so many are expected to fill Liverpool's centre to catch a glimpse of the eight-legged beast, although those suffering from arachnophobia may choose to stay at home.

    The La Machine project was commissioned by arts company Artichoke for £1.8 million, with the spider being created in Nantes before it was shipped to Liverpool to be assembled in a secret location.

    It may look like Liverpool is under attack from giant spiders from outer space, but in fact the appearance of this giant creepy-crawly, on the side of an empty office block near Lime Street Station, heralds the start of La Machine, a three-day piece of street theatre and part of the city's year as Capital of Culture.

    The 18-metre, mechanical arachnid has been designed and created by French puppet street theatre company, Royal de Luxe, the same company that presented London with the procession of the enormous mechanical Sultan's Elephant in 2006 (see related Rex sets), bringing the centre of the capital to a standstill.

    Cheeky chap: A drain worker spends his time looking up ladies skirts in Old Town, Bratislava.

    Reaching for the stars: Who needs stairs at the Rockefeller centre in New York when a giant steel pole will do.

    Dancing dolphins: A young girl defies gravity to play with a dolphin near Tower Bridge in London.

    To the point: The Swedes have a novel way of pointing visitors in the right direction of the royal palace.

    Strange bedfellows: We've heard of falling out of bed before, but this is ridiculous.

    Big spender: Someone is obviously ready for a serious shopping spree in Melbourne, Australia.
