Express logistics nothing new at venerable Waterloo Station

If you think Britain’s biggest and busiest terminal is all about passenger numbers, think again. London’s famous Waterloo Station has a long association with traffic that’s of more interest to the rail freight sector. Celebrations around a significant anniversary for the station have brought to light a reminder of those other purposes for which the vast complex on the South Bank has been put to use historically. Beyond parcels and mail, there are some uses that are just drop-dead astonishing.
