Paddington station was the subject of William Powell Frith's 1862 painting The Railway Station. The portrait was viewed by over 21,000 people (paying a shilling each) in the first seven weeks of its being publicly shown. It is now held in the Royal Holloway College near Egham in Surrey.

Two other pictures with a railway theme are Going North and Coming South. They were commissioned by Sir Andrew Barclay Walker of the Walker Brewery, and are bustling narrative works depicting railway station life. Going North (1893) tells the story of a group of friends travelling from Kings Cross to Scotland for the summer grouse shooting season. The partner work Coming South (1895) shows the group a month later at Perth station, about to make their return journey. They are now owned by the National Railway Museum in York.
