Morning outside Paddington Station, Angela Lansbury by the sculpture of what looks like Alice in Wonderland's tea party, called The Wild Table of Love. Photo by Angela Lansbury.
Wikipedia article on Paddington station has a picture of the Paddington Bear sculpture on Platform 1.
Paddington station's official name is London Paddington which is how it is listed in Wikipedia.
The overground section built by Brunel was in his time on the west of London and ran west to Wales.
The Paddington underground station has exits adjacent and within a complex. The station occupies the whole of a block on Praed Street, including the old station hotel.
The Big Hotel
The old railway hotel was built in grand style. It is now, in 2026, a Hilton. They were charging about £400 for a walk-in rate which was the price quoted to me on reception in October. But you might find it cheaper off-peak and booked through booking.com.
