The Devil in the Detail
St Pancras station sits on the first new major British railway line in over a century. This series tells the story of its construction.
St Pancras station sits at the end of a massive 5.8 billion pound railway line - the first major British line to be built for over a century. This new series tells the story of the architects, engineers and spin doctors who entered a frantic two year race to make the Royal Opening on time. There were huge financial incentives, but many personal reputations at stake. This episode tells the story of architect Alastair Lansley, whose expensive artistic vision unnerved the engineers.
