The recently-demolished white elevated buildings; were they part of the
original exibition, or were they built later? I once got off an Oxford
Tube bus there to have a look at what was obviously once an entrance,
next to Shepherd's Bush station, but there was no way to see inside.

The building next to Shepherd's Bush station was indeed the original
Shepherd's Bush entrance - although quite a bit of it disappeared many
years ago. For a photo showing its original appearance go to
