Shots of the inside of the Scarif base featuring the railway station were filmed at the Canary Wharf London Underground station. The budget did not allow for creating this additional set, so director Gareth Edwards opted to use Canary Wharf station for its strikingly futuristic design. Production could use the site only at night between closing and opening hours, leaving only a few hours for set decoration and filming. Since everything had to be done in complete secrecy to prevent internet leaks, props and costumes had to be smuggled in and out when there were passengers present. The most frustrating thing according to Edwards was that they were filming a Star Wars movie in such a public place, and could not tell anyone.
