This is the impressive 1868 façade of St Pancras train station in London. The station is nearing completion after a 10 year renovation project making it into London's Eurostar terminal, which will take over from Waterloo on 14 November.
The station is the final element in the High Speed 1 rail link project which was initiated by the Channel Tunnel Rail Link Act in 1996.
silicon.com went along to the station a month before its official opening to take a look at what will - according to its developers, London and Continental Railways (LCR) - make it the most technologically advanced railway station in the world.
