London Necropolis railway station was the terminus at Waterloo, London, of the London Necropolis Railway. The London Necropolis Railway was opened in 1854 as a reaction to severe overcrowding in London's existing graveyards and cemeteries. It aimed to use the recently developed technology of the railway to move as many burials as possible to the newly built Brookwood Cemetery in Brookwood, Surrey. This location was within easy travelling distance of London, but distant enough for the dead not to pose any risk to public hygiene. There were two locations for the station; the first was in operation from 1854 to 1902, the second from 1902 to 1941.

  • La stazione di Londra Necropolis era una stazione ferroviaria di Londra, capolinea settentrionale della ferrovia della Necropoli di Londra. La ferrovia della Necropoli di Londra fu aperta nel 1854 a causa del sovraffollamento negli esistenti cimiteri di Londra; utilizzando la tecnologia di recente sviluppo, questa ferrovia serviva per spostare il maggior numero possibile di tombe verso l'appena costruito cimitero di Brookwood, a Brookwood nel Surrey.Questa posizione era a una non eccessiva distanza da Londra e, al contempo, sufficientemente lontano per non creare rischi di salute e igiene pubblica. La ferrovia è rimasta attiva dal 1854 al 1902, prima, e dal 1902 al 1941, dopo. (it)
