Virtual Tour – Going down the tube: some abandoned bits of the Underground

There are lots of abandoned places on the London Underground. Join Stephen to hear about these lost and forgotten relics.

This is a virtual tour conducted live hosted via Zoom video conferencing where your guide will show slides and give a talk to accompany them. There will be the opportunity for questions both during and after the talk.

==================================================================

The first section of the London Underground opened in 1863 and since then much has changed leading to sections of track, stations and tunnels to be closed and abandoned. There are a host of closed Underground stations, some of which have found new uses and there are bits of the system that did not quite fit and so stopped being used by the tube. Plus there are projects that did not quite turn out as planned.

Join Stephen as he roves across London and shares you with the stories of lost and forgotten relics of the Underground, both above and below ground.
