Full steam ahead for "most technologically advanced train station in the world"...

This shows how the departure boards will fit into the station space.

LCR is also working on a system whereby passengers will receive information about their train departure time and platform number via SMS.

    It's unfortunate that the creeping americanisation of our language has been allowed to give this magnificent edifice the incorrect title of "train station".

    St Pancras, along with all other such buildings, is a RAILWAY STATION.

    What's the point of having the most technologically advanced railway station, if the only things arriving at it are the current trains running on an appalingly bad railway infrastructure?
