St Albans: Former London Road railway station

In the past St Albans had several railway stations. For most of its life this one was *the* St Albans station, only obtaining the London Road suffix in 1950, a year before its closure to passenger traffic. It was on the Hatfield and St Albans Railway and opened in 1865. It is now a business centre, named after the residential road and estate that was built over the railway and the former station sidings, Orient Close.
