Anybody know where the Jubilee line crosses the Meridian on its way to
Canning Town - it couldn't be right under the Thames, could it?

No, it would be just before arriving at North Greenwich when coming
from Canary Wharf, since the Prime Meridian runs up the west side of
the North Greenwich peninsula.

Thanks.

I wonder if there is any sort of marker in the tunnel? There is certainly a
meridian marker on the DLR, between East India and Canning Town.

Ah - now I know exactly where it is! I'll have to take the DLR between
those two stations one day next week (I don't normally bother - it's 15
minutes' walk from one station and 20 from the other, so not worth it)
so I can see the line. Thanks.
