Still known colloquially as ‘VT’ after its colonial-era name, Victoria Terminus, Chhatrapati Shivaji doesn’t actually have much in common with Britain’s own great Victorian railway, St Pancras. If anything, it’s much grander than George Gilbert Scott’s Gothic red-brick effort, its profusion of domes and spires topped by a four-metre-high marble statue intended to represent ‘Progress’, in case anyone missed the point. Now one of Mumbai’s most celebrated buildings, Chhatrapati Shivaji has been a Unesco World Heritage Site since 2004.
