No UK is not part of Shengan.
You must apply and pay for UK visa.

It depends on the shengen country that ua. If ua in Germany, u can enter UK with train but u must posses valid papers connecting you to germany. For instance, as a student in germany, u can goto UK with train but there is a maximum staying period.

Misleading answer!
A Nigerian can not enter the UK even to visit without a visa.
Being a student makes no difference, it is the country that you come from that is important.
Even by train you will be checked before entry for correct visa.
No talk of "transit visa" that is only for air passengers and they can not leave the terminal.

Short answer, yes!
It shows that you have successfully undergone some form of screening and as such you would rate higher during the UK visa application process than say a newbie.

Some countries don't even ask for a process for their visa as long as you have either a UK, American or Schengen visa already. Turkey comes to mind.
