Famous Train Stations
A relaxing way of getting around is to travel by train. Many train stations have grown into impressive structures over the years and are famous for their architecture. Here's a look at two of them.
Paddington Station Location: London, England.
Built: 1854, but the train stop has existed there since 1838. Famous for: Paddington Bear.
Paddington was originally a stop for the Great Western Railway. This took people on holiday to resorts in southwest England. The main station was designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel, a famous engineer.
Paddington Bear is a famous children's story character. He got his name from this station. There is a small tourist shop in the station that sells Paddington Bear souvenirs. The station has appeared in films and fiction. In fact, the mystery writer Agatha Christie wrote a book named 4.50 from Paddington. There was also a gangster film that featured the station called The Long Good Friday.
Grand Central Station
Location: New York City, the United States. Built:1871.
Famous for: Having the most platforms in the world.
There are forty-four platforms in Grand Central Station, and there will be forty-
eight once a new Manhattan East access line is finished.
There have been a number of films with scenes from Grand Central Station. Scenes from Superman take place in the station, but are actually filmed in London. The scene in North by Northwest(1959) was filmed at night inside the real Grand Central Station. Another film with scenes from Grand Central Station is The Untouchables(1987).
