Ventilation shaft in Kilsby Tunnel, Northamptonshire, London & Birmingham Railway, 1839. Artist: John Cooke Bourne

Ventilation shaft in Kilsby Tunnel, Northamptonshire, London & Birmingham Railway, 1839. Robert Stephenson (1803-1859) was appointed chief engineer of the London & Birmingham Railway (LBR), the first railway into London. Running between Curzon Street Station, Birmingham, and Euston Station, London, the 112 mile long line took 20, 000 men nearly five years to build, at a cost of five and a half million pounds. The excavation of the tunnel at Kilsby, Northamptonshire was one of the greatest engineering challenges on the LBR, due to problems with quicksand. The LBR opened on 17 September 1838. From Drawings of the London and Birmingham Railway by J Bourne, 1839
