St. Pancras’ cameo in the Netflix drama, The Crown.

This September Southeastern celebrate the 10th anniversary of the UK’s first and only domestic high speed train service. Opened to the public with a special ‘preview’ service on the 29th June 2009, Southeastern Highspeed has carried more than 100 million passengers over the past decade on the HS1 line, connecting the capital to Kent.

The Royal Academy of Arts and HS1 Ltd. has revealed a major site-specific installation, I Want My Time With You, 2018, by Royal Academician Tracey Emin for Terrace Wires, the station’s public commissioning programme for new artwork by leading international artists.

Cornelia Parker’s work, One More Time, in 2015, was a working replica of the station’s DENT London clock. Reversed out in black and silver, it became reminiscent of a photographic negative. The black clock was suspended 16 metres in front of the original, so for those alighting from the trains the original face will gradually appear eclipsed.
