An unusual passageway many people admit to not knowing exists forms a unique subterranean link to a busy Liverpool train station.
Only open during peak hours, access to James Street Station in Liverpool city centre can found via a set of unassuming double doors on nearby Water Street. Opened in 1886, James Street station, together with Hamilton Square underground station in Birkenhead, are the oldest deep level underground stations in the world.
In 2013, James Street Station was partially closed as part of work to upgrade Liverpool's rail network. During the refurbishment, builders discovered a fascinating glimpse into the past life of the city's commuters.
