Anyone else heard about this huge former LU substation under embankment?

Quite an impressive space. I'm surprised its not used for anything. In real
estate terms it must be worth a fortune.

Its part of page's walk, which terrifies a lot of people - its
reckoned to be haunted.

Here's a bit of a documentary about it (and other haunted bits of
london) - unfortunately it doesn't mention the cavern -

the last 1.8 minutes (from 7:50) of this part -

What interests me, though is this picture -

Here's a picture of the same area from higher up -

According to the text, this - the arched doorway in the air (on the
upper right of the second picture) - is the only way to the district
line.

Given that page's walk is the original connection between the district
and the bakerloo, how did passengers get from the substation entrance
(on the bakerloo side) to the arched doorway - presumably it didn't
involve that ladder?
