London Waterloo station is a major railway terminus in central London. Constructed in 1848, the station is located in the borough of Southwark, on the southern bank of the River Thames.
It sits at the southern end of Waterloo and Westminster Bridge.
History
Waterloo station was first built in 1848 originally as a stopover between Southampton and London. It soon became a high-traffic station, resulting in additional platforms with its own entrance and booking office built around the original building, giving it the name "Central station". The construction of another train station named Waterloo Junction in 1869 lead to further confusion amongst the commuters.[1]
Around 1852, a burial ground was erected near the station by the London Necropolis Company as a response to London's crowded cemteries. Waterloo station was chosen as a departure point for the bodies to be shipped to Surrey, largely due to its close proximity to River Thames.[1] In 1869, Assassin Pierrette Arnaud arrived in London at the station and was met by British Assassin Evie Frye as they discussed the recent predicatement of Dante Gabriel Rossetti exhuming his late wife Lizzie's grave and thus Ada Lovelace's notebook as well.[2]
On the morning of 16 October 2016, Templar agent Anaya Chodary set up a meeting between her, Inner Sanctum member and former boyfriend Simon Hathaway and Dr. Victoria Bibeau as she disclosed that her replacement Benjamin Clarke was behind the Animus tampering. She states she will investigate the matter while they continued to venture Gabriel Laxart's memories to further prove Simon's work.[3]
