Interior of Great Hall at Euston Station
View of the Great Hall built by the newly created London & North Western Railway in 1846 in the 1837 terminus of the London & Birmingham Railway. Ahead is the grand staircase leading to the gallery and shareholders' room, past the 1852 statue of George Stephenson. Being a Sunday there are relatively few people around - except the inevitable sleeping drunk. A splendid place for a booking-office, but you normally bought your ticket from a little guichet outside in a narrow passageway. This was all destroyed in 1962.
