The Fifteen Billion Pound Railway: Platforms and Plague Pits

INHALT

The concluding episode of the documentary about the construction of the Crossrail train line linking east and west London follows the work of engineers building 10 new stations. A team battles to put together the giant jigsaw that will become a cathedral-sized station at Canary Wharf. The structure is so big it has to be erected underwater in a dock, while the roof comes in a kit of more than 2,500 pieces. As the underground caverns that will become the new stations are carved out, workers uncover gruesome reminders of the city's past. Last in the series.
