	London and Birmingham Railway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The London and Birmingham Railway (LandBR) was an early railway company in the United Kingdom from 1833 until 1846, at which date it became a constituent part of the London and North Western Railway.
		The railway line that the company built and owned between London and Birmingham was, when it opened in 1838, one of the first intercity railway lines in the world and the first railway line to be built into London.
		The line was opened between Birmingham and Rugby to the north, and London to Bletchley to the south, and a stagecoach shuttle service was introduced linking the two, and allowing people to complete the journey to London.

	L.M.S. History - 1935
		The route of the former Glasgow and South Western Railway from Carlisle to Glasgow, via Dumfries, is thirteen miles longer than the Caledonian route; it is taken by the London-Glasgow expresses via the Midland Division of the L.M.S. From Dumfries there branches off the line to Stranraer (for Northern Ireland).
		In 1858 Parliament sanctioned the absorption of the Chester and Holyhead Railway.
		The nucleus of the Midland Railway system owes much to William Hudson, the "railway king." He was the first to realise, and to put into practice, the idea that railways could best be worked as large-scale undertakings; and that amalgamation, which would yield centralised ownership and management, was therefore necessary.
