St
Pancras Station was designed by Gilbert
Scott. The main engineer on the project was W. H. Barlow. Built
in 1868 the ribs of the Gothic shaped roof continue in an unbroken
line from platform level to the ridge at the top. The building is
243 ft. wide, 600 ft. long and the point of the arch is 100 ft. above
rail level. It became the main London terminal
the York & Midland Railway.
