74.0 Waterloo (Jubilee)
84.4 Bank (Northern)
Looks like the actual deepest railway platform in London is a toss
up between
jubilee waterloo and Bank DLR which is way beneath the northern line
platforms.
Anyone know how deep the DLR is?
41.4m below street level apparently. Street level is 13m, so around
28-29m below sea level. Thus 2-3m deeper than Jubilee at Waterloo.
And hence about 12m below the northern at Bank (which seems reasonable).
Which, of course, is why I asked about the DLR at Bank upthread:
Yes, I noticed.

What about the DLR at Bank?
No-one bothered to answer.
Gets tangled up in whether it's a "tube" service or not.
But maybe people can comment on whether it's also "unbearably deep",
nevertheless.
