Ickenham FM toilets are locked 247 outside the gateline, but
available on customer request. Some parts of the network seem to
think vandalism/anti-social behaviour is a reason for permanent
service closure.

That seems to happen at Perivale.

On the other hand, at Harrow on the Hill and Alperton I've found very
helpful staff, even when loos were closed. In fact, those two places
stick in my mind as where I've received "service with a smile" from LU
staff.

Oh add West Ruislip to that, too. And North Ealing. At various
times over the years staff have opened toilets there just for me/us.
The one at North Ealing actually let me into the ladies' loo, once!

The toilets at Bank are closed at weekends. And they're run by the
council so TfL staff can't even open them for you.

Interestingly, that wasn't always the case. I clearly remember taking
a group there to use them one Sunday, although this could have been up
to 5 years ago.

Usually in The City, things move in the other direction these days, with
a trend towards more being open on Sundays than away from it.
