That's right. As from today, King's Cross Thameslink is no more. The outmoded station on Pentonville Road closed for business yesterday. Services now stop beneath St Pancras International on new platforms (pictured). It seems to be the law these days that anything recently opened must be trumpeted as 'shiny new'. Not so with these platforms. IanVisits describes a 'clinical grey feel', but with much widened access. Diamond Geezer, meanwhile, gives a fitting eulogy to......

If you tread the boards at this Pentonville Road acting school, you might want to be careful where you put your feet. We weren't sure if this fecal equivalent of RADA is a college for turning little shits into thespians, or a method-acting school that specialises in the extremely niche area of simulating the act of excretion on stage. Is the turdsome hue of the building deliberate? Are those white bags full of hardened......

Not 'capture' in a 'behind bars' kind of way of course. We mean capture as in 'document'. We've slowly been building up a decent archive of Banksy photos over in our Londonist pool for a while now (thanks mainly, it must be said, to the tireless efforts of Sunshine Indoors). But we'd like to expand on this wealth of data, try and amass the 'complete set' as it were, and than maybe map the......

Tonight: Fancy a little danceable punchy guitar driven night out? Perhaps you might like to catch The Sunshine Underground at Dingwalls. Friday: With some grand new material Kaibosh are keeping busy this year taking it to the road. We'll bring you a review of their new EP as soon as we have it but in the meantime you can catch them at Clockwork, 66-68 Pentonville Road N1, doors at 8. We like trains, as......

The mystery red line is back. And this time it's tricksier than ever. The new piece of minimalist pavement art picks up where it left off, opposite the Novotel on Euston Road. (Camden Council must be apoplectic, after doing their best to erase the earlier marking.) We followed it along Pentonville Road for quite some way until it took a sharp right down Amwell Street into Finsbury. From there, it runs into Roseberry Avenue......

Everyone’s seen that airy glass box at the back of St Pancras, right? The efficient but soulless terminus for Midland Mainline trains. Well, you may have noticed that it contains a set of cordoned-off escalators that never open. Where do they go? To borrow from Bill Murray in Ghostbusters: they go down. Down into an eerie concrete box beneath St Pancras. Down into a recently built chamber intended as a future stop for Thameslink......
