London's iconic Kings Cross station is one of the best-known and busiest stations in the world. The station was built in the middle of the 19th century. It got its name from a monument erected in honor of King George IV in 1830 near the crossroads near the station's current location. The name stuck even after the statue was removed a few years later. In addition to connecting major cities including Yorkshire, Edinburgh, Cambridge, Newcastle, Inverness, and Doncaster, as well as dozens of other domestic routes, Kings Cross station is an important hub on the UK railway network. Additionally, King's Cross Station is home to Harry Potter's famous platform 934. More information about train routes details you can find on Benelux trains.
