I'd forgotten that there was an earlier building closer to the main
entrance to Waterloo station, before the later building round the corner.

The Necropolis Railway features a lot in the first Jim Stringer novel by
Andrew Martin, called "The Necropolis Railway".

Don't be put off by Andrew Martin's slightly odd and clumsy writing
style at times, which may be the "fault" of the way that Jim Stringer
tells the story in the first person, in a slightly "laddish" style.
