London's stations

I have a stupid question : In London, there are a lot of stations. But what are the directions of the trains in each station. I mean, where the trains which leave Paddington go, for example. And what's about the others london stations.

Paddington trains go to Cornwall (Penzance), South Wales (Swansea), Hereford and pretty much everywhere within that area. Cannon Street, and Charing Cross trains go to Kent,
Waterloo Trains go to Portsmouth, Weymouth, and Exeter,
Victoria trains go to Kent and Towards Brighton/Bognor/Southampton (via Barnham), as do London Bridge trains.
Marylebone trains will take you towards Birmingham or Aylesbury.
Euston will take you to Birmingham, North Wales, Glasgow
Kings Cross will take you to Kings Lynn, York & Edinburgh, Leeds
Liverpool Street will take you to Norwich, Cambridge and most of Essex
Fenchurch street will take you to Tilbury & Southend
St Pancras will take you to Nottingham, Derby, Sheffield
Blackfriars will take you to Bedford and Brighton

Think that's the lot. I haven't bothered to mention the suburban services.

Won't St Pancras also take you to Paris and Brussels, soon, too?

yep, and you can currently go to Paris/ Brussels from Waterloo.

You'll also be able to get into some bits of Kent from St Pancras when that lot opens in a couple of years time (just in time for Paris to win the Olympics)

You can also get to Manchester from St. Pancras at the moment via the Midland Mainline and the beautiful Hope Valley!

Moorgate will take you to Welwyn and Letchworth Garden cities.

Waterloo will also take you to Bristol.
