Today, Paddington tube station is served by the Bakerloo, Circle, District, and Hammersmith & City lines.

Central London is the innermost part of London, UK.

There is no official definition of its area but its characteristics are understood to include a high density built environment, high land values, an elevated daytime population and a concentration of regionally, nationally and internationally significant organisations and facilities.

Over time a number of definitions have been used to define the scope of central London for statistics, urban planning and local government.

A train is a form of rail transport consisting of a series of vehicles that usually runs along a rail track to transport cargo or passengers.

Motive power is provided by a separate locomotive or individual motors in self-propelled multiple units.

Although historically steam propulsion dominated, the most common modern forms are diesel and electric locomotives, the latter supplied by overhead wires or additional rails.

Other energy sources include horses, engine or water-driven rope or wire winch, gravity, pneumatics, batteries, and gas turbines.

Train tracks usually consist of two running rails, sometimes supplemented by additional rails such as electric conducting rails and rack rails, with a limited number of monorails and maglev guideways in the mix.

The word 'train' comes from the Old French trahiner, from the Latin trahere 'pull, draw'.

An airport terminal is a building at an airport where passengers transfer between ground transportation and the facilities that allow them to board and disembark from aircraft.
