Annie will pop out the tunnel Tuesday morning, at nine am all
welcome
to see between York Road and Caledonian Road


Who is Annie?


Annie is the name of one of the digging machines that's currently
digging a 7.5km tunnel between Stratford and Kings Cross for the
CTRL.


Does this mean that people on the Piccadilly Line trains between York
Road and Caledonian Road will actually be able to see the tunnel? Or
am I misunderstanding where the digger will emerge?


LOL! Unless things have gone radically adrift, Annie will break out into
the open air at the location marked by the arrow at

If Piccadilly Line passengers can see any of this, they should start
worrying.
