Blackfriars Station

Categories: Transport

The station was opened by the London, Chatham and Dover Railway company with the name St. Paul's, and renamed in 1937. It underwent a major redevelopment between 2009 and 2012, with the platforms now extending along the entire length of the railway bridge across the Thames. The photograph was taken circa 1930.
