The Metropolitan Railway was the first underground railway and was designed to transport passengers arriving at London’s main line stations into the City. Paddington, Euston and King’s Cross were all some distance from London’s central business district.

An underground line built below the main road to the City would avoid most of the property demolition needed to build a railway at ground level. It could also relieve the growing traffic congestion on the roads. The Metropolitan Railway Company was formed in 1854 to carry through this ground-breaking project.
