How about the big tunnel machine that was used to build the Waterloo and
City line, then abandoned somewhere in the vicinity of Bank station, then
rediscovered when the station was modified to accommodate the DLR, and

which
you can now walk through on one of the new connecting corridors.


That's one I hadn't heard about before. How obvious is it that you are
inside it?

It's painted red so stands out in the white tiling quite well. It actually
looks like a few exposed iron tunnel segments but is in fact part of the
tunnel shield I think. It's at a slight bend in the passage, and has a
small sign explaining what it is. I think it's on the corridor connecting
the Waterloo and City to the DLR.
