High Speed 1 Ltd, the principal partner of the Station Sessions, is the owner of High Speed 1 (HS1), the UK’s first section of high speed railway and the stations along its route, including St Pancras International.

Since the first high speed trains began running on HS1 in November 2007, the railway has enjoyed an exemplary record without a single day of operation missed. In summer 2009, HS1 opened to high speed domestic trains, providing a much improved commuter service between central London and Kent

Looking forward, HS1 is already preparing to be a crucial part of the transport infrastructure for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, carrying up to 25,000 spectators and official every hour to and from the Olympic Park. In the meantime, it is expected that further international services will be added as the success of high speed rail to and from the UK takes off.

We are delighted to announce Gibson Guitar as the official equipment supplier of the Station Sessions. Gibson is known worldwide for producing top quality instruments and exceptional musical equipment. When you think guitars, you think Gibson and this is one of the main reasons why the Station Sessions are so excited to make the association official. 

In the first season of the Station Sessions, Gibson Guitar provided a magnificent Gibson Les Paul Studio Raw Power guitar to the winner of the photography competition; which in turn, attracted multiple entries and considerable excitement. 

This association will provide the Station Sessions with Gibson Guitar’s top of the range equipment,  including a Baldwin Grand Piano, acting as the centerpiece for the piano themed series of the Station Sessions in December.
