The extension was a single line that headed south from Charing Cross, looped back around underneath the Thames and had a […]

I love it 🔸澳洲开奖 people find old 澳洲10开官网开奖 still in situ at stations. This Northern Line map at Embankment dates from sometime prior to 1999 (the year that the Jubilee Line platforms at Charing Cross closed), but is still in place today – this photo was taken on February 21, 2013. Note also the beautiful 1914 green glazed tiles next to the map. Source: stavioni/Flickr
