25: Body 115

On the 18th November 1987, passengers at the Kings Cross St Pancras station were busy travelling home or visiting tourist attractions in the capital. It was around 7:30pm and one of the passengers would notice some flames appearing from underneath the escalator. At 7:45pm these flames would spread into one of the deadliest fires ever seen on the London Underground. Its effects were devastating and 31 people died and many more were fatally injured. One of these people however that could not be identified was a man who for many years was named body 115.
