Charing Cross Underground Station — Bakerloo Line Terminus

Charing Cross Underground Station Bakerloo Line Terminus
A Bakerloo Line train rests at Charing Cross Underground Station, beneath the heart of central London. Once a junction for both the Bakerloo and Jubilee lines, Charing Cross now functions as the southern terminus for Bakerloo services, connecting to the mainline station above. The photograph highlights the tunnel portal with its characteristic red tiles and the clean signage pointing toward the Northern line and the National Rail concourse. Opened in 1906 and expanded through the 1970s, the station remains an emblem of the Underground’s architectural layering—where Edwardian infrastructure meets modern transit demands.
