A Station on the
London Underground (aka
tube), visited by the
Bakerloo,
Hammersmith & City,
Circle and
District lines.
Paddington station was designed by archtiect
Isambard Kingdom Brunel, known to his friends as "Izzy". It is a monstrosity of Iron lacework and filthy glass. Izzy has a statue by one of the entrances. He's sitting down and he looks like his train is late. I think he should cheer up, he's got the only bloody seat in the station.
Paddington is also the destination of the
Heathrow Express. Takes 15 minutes, goes every 15 minutes, costs 12 quid.
Supposedly
Paddington Bear was found wandering around Paddington station with a label reading "
please take care of this bear".
