Kings Cross and Pentonville Road

: I was minutes away from stepping on a train at Kings Cross when a bomb ripped through the station on the morning of July 7, 2005, killing 56 people, according to Rabble. At the time, I lived in a building off Pentonville Road, one of several bustling roads adjacent to Kings Cross. Chip in to keep stories like these coming. The station had been cordoned off and manned by dozens of Transport for London officers. It was hours before the explosions were confirmed as terrorist attacks. I stood among the crowd of confused people gathered as rumours flew of an explosion taking place underground due to a power surge on the London Underground power grid. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
