Train travel to London Victoria guide

London Victoria Station is a major railway terminus in central London, serving the Brighton Main Line and the Chatham Main Line. The station has a unique "split" feel, as if it were two separate stations. The Brighton section opened in 1860, followed by the Chatham section two years later. In 1923, Southern railway integrated the two sections, creating the bustling terminus we know today. Victoria Station is one of the busiest in the UK, with millions of passengers passing through each year, connecting to destinations such as Orpington, London Bridge, and Brighton.

Conveniently located, Victoria Station is close to major landmarks like Buckingham Palace, Westminster Cathedral, and the Houses of Parliament. The station is also connected to the Circle, District, and Victoria underground lines, making it easy for travellers to navigate the city. Additionally, Victoria Coach Station is just 300 meters southwest of the train station, providing further transportation options for travellers.

London Victoria Station is not only a key transport hub but also an architectural landmark. Its iconic façade, designed by the architect William H. Crossland, was completed in 1862 and is a striking example of Victorian design.
