[b]King's Cross and St. Pancras Railway Stations: Renaissance 1990 to 2025[/b]

In June 1990, The Railway Magazine issued a supplement entitled 'King's Cross Renaissance: The History, Development and Future of Two Great Stations' by PWB Semmens MA, CChem, FRSC, MBCS, MCIT.

Semmens introduces the supplement by first highlighting the 1846 'Royal Commission on Railway Termini Within or in the Immediate Vicinity of the Metropolis' which recommended that “surface railways should remain towards the outskirts, and fixed a ring of roads around the city, beyond which they should not penetrate.” [1:p3]
