Best Answer

The Great Western Railway funded the project, they also agreed to design the trains, as long as the route passed through their Paddington Railway Station terminus. An Act Of Parliament was passed for funding, nothing much was accomplished until Charles Pearson began lobbying Parliament and soon after, the Metropolitan Railway came to be as the service provider but the City Of London Corporation essentially made it.
