Network Rail owns, operates and develops Britain’s railway – the 20,000 miles of track, 40,000 bridges, tunnels and viaducts and the thousands of signal, level crossings and stations. The 18 largest stations are run by the company itself, while all the others, over 2,500, are run by one of the country’s train operating companies.
One of those stations run by Network Rail is London St Pancras International, the South Eastern High Speed Javelin and Eurostar trains make this station one of the busiest in Britain. High Speed 1 is the rail line between St Pancras International and the Channel Tunnel and connects with the international high-speed routes between London and Paris, and London and Brussels.
