While looking around the centre of Leeds using Google Earth I was very surprised to find that the inside of City Station could be viewed. The attached image is a view that I captured to give an idea of what can be seen. I 'entered' the view from the City Square access/egress point and kept going forward to beyond the ticket office where I stopped, but I clearly could have gone further. Interestingly the time on the clock went backwards as I went further in, suggesting that whoever took the view moved towards City Square. I suspect the images were taken by hand held equipment as I would guess that a Google mapping car would not be let in, if only on safety grounds as there were people around. I was not surprised however that Google Street View did not seem to show the inside!

Thanks for that link liits. It won't be long (if it has not already happened) that Google views inside homes are available. Mind you it would not take long to go round mine!
