Charing Cross Underground — Bakerloo Line Platform

Charing Cross Underground Bakerloo Line Platform
A Bakerloo Line train pauses at Charing Cross Underground Station, one of the most historically layered stations in central London. Opened in 1906, Charing Cross became a key interchange point connecting the Bakerloo and Northern lines beneath the Strand. The photograph captures the distinctive orange-tiled tunnel portal and overhead “Way Out” signage leading toward the mainline station above. Once part of the Jubilee Line until 1999, this section now serves as a terminus for Bakerloo trains, blending Edwardian design elements with the operational systems of a 21st-century network.
