Lagos Terminus, also known as Lagos Iddo, is the main railway station of the city of Lagos. The rail terminus is located on Iddo Island, nearby Lagos Island and in the middle of the city. The station, located in front of Carter Bridge and by the Lagos Lagoon, has a large two floor terminal building.It counts also a pair of train sheds: one located just outside the station platforms and a larger one located 2 km north, nearby Lagos Yaba station. The opening of the Lagos Steam Tramway took place on May 23, 1902 and it was operated by the Lagos Government Railway. The original line ran north-west along the waterfront, from a point near Government House and the European residential area around the Race course, to Customs Wharf, where it turned north-east towards Ereko market and Idumota. A 95 ft-radius curve took the line north-westwards again, through Ebute Ero and over Carter bridge to the railway station at Iddo. The line serving Lagos Terminus, as well as the entire national network, is not electrified; and the track gauge is narrow (1,067 mm). Lagos station is the terminus of commuter and long distance trains, as for example the flagship express train to Kano, in north of Nigeria and 1,126 km far from Lagos. A standard gauge high-speed line, connecting Lagos to Abuja, has been planned in early 2010s, as part of the development plan of the Nigerian railways. Lagos Terminus will be served by two lines (red and blue) of the future Lagos Metro, under construction, at Iddo metro station.

More of an historic place. Fantastic for photography projects. There are also alot of touts there, so go prepared to settle them or go with security operatives. It is managed by an NGO called LEGACY, their office is just behind the railway compound

With recent Innovative scheme that has been put in motion, the Nigerian railway compound has to some extent become an admirable place to go.... It has an institute where one could go and have some real time excersise...
N

Nkechi Ogueri

Attended an event here and it was an absolute delight. This space is great for outdoorsy style events. However, please advise guuests to wear covered flat shoes. As the soil stains easily and it will be really uncomfortable to walk with heels here. I feel like a lot of the space here can be utilized for more

The maintenance culture of our country was very evident in the way most of the things were falling apart. There was a few art work and structure built recently (2012) and they looked like they had been there 25 years . We need to do better !

If you love nature - greens, trees and how birds sing with squirrels cracking nuts on the roof to wake you each morning - the railway compound is your best place to live in the heart of Lagos metropolitan.

Olaitan Olatunde

Filled with history. This place covers the entire right side of Murtala Mohammed Way, stretching from Yaba all the way almost to Oyingbo. Wish it could become really vibrant again and serve our transportation needs in this population tight state. We need to defuse the traffic on our roads and make life easier for everyone. I dream of a lagos with a lot less traffic, where the third mainland bridge functions like it was planned for.
