The Midland Railway (MR) built the  station since it had a large rail  network in the Midlands and North ofEngland but no dedicated connectioninto London. 

The MR chose to create a line from Bedford to London with itsown terminus after rail traffic  concerns during the 1862  International Exhibition.

St Pancras International is more than just a railway station; it’s a stunning Grade 1 listed structure that will take your breath away, 

as well as a destination in and of  itself, with shops, restaurants, and cafes.

The historic St Pancras station in London, which first opened in 1868, was wonderfully refurbished and  reopened on November 14, 2007, to serve as the London terminus for Eurostar trains to Paris, Brugge, and other European destinations.

The parish was named after Saint Pancras, a 14-year-old boy who had converted to Christianity and would not renounce his faith. As a result, he was beheaded by Diocletian in Rome in 304AD.

He is the patron saint of children. St Pancras is a Greek name meaning ‘the one that holds everything’.
