This post is aimed at those using Victoria Railway Station for the first time curious over what to expect.
To achieve this, the best option is to just play the video clip at the bottom.
Victoria Railway Station is the second busiest railway station in London after Waterloo, its main purpose in terms of numbers is as a commuter hub getting people South and South East of London into town.
Over 70 million people pass through Victoria each year.
For visitors if you fly into Gatwick Airport, there is a very good chance you will get a train into Victoria.
The station has a small shopping centre, Victoria Place, there are retail outlets to meet most peoples needs. Bars, restaurants, fast food, coffee shops, convenience stores, newsstands, pharmacies, even a bookmakers.
There is a handy left luggage office in the station, but it is not cheap and a small visitor centre. There is a slightly more economical left luggage facility at Victoria Coach Station.
