I'm wondering if you know the difference between a server program and a server, virtual or physical. Why do you assume I am conversant with the operational setup of a free news service based in the netherlands? By examining their headers. I don't give a ****, you're the one who's bothered about it. Interestingly through your domain name I've just found out your wifes name, your home address and what car you drive. Blue Saab? No not any more. Indeed not. ITYF streetview has been updated recently. Thats not a clever thing to allow these days. Don't be too quick to admit to stalking me. In any event with the same Don't flatter yourself. If you put your home address in a public repository that can be accessed by anyone with half a clue then more fool you. Anyone with any sense registers their domain at their accountants address or failing that a P.O Box. -- Spud |

2016, Basil Jet remarked: Just curious - does anyone know what form the architecture will take, will it be like the JLE, crossrail or something completely new? Also I presume the 2 new stations will have platform doors too which I imagine will mean some new kit on the trains - unless its already installed. Just a thought... one of the Northern platforms at London Bridge is as new as the Jubilee extension but doesn't have PEDs. Although perhaps that is because the existing tunnels could be used for ventilation, so adding PEDs would not have saved anything. The ventilation there is partly via the old C&SLR tunnels, but also the original lift shaft. I've always wondered if that has survived the recent large amount of rebuilding at ground level (it's outside the footprint of the NR station). -- Roland Perry |

Well in that case why did you bother to ask in the first place? Make your mind up. Indeed not. ITYF streetview has been updated recently. I can see why you think that. Yes, its not a blue saab is it.

One minute you're paranoid about stalking then you're claiming this. Nutters don't care if you have something to hide or not. Just saying... -- Spud |

The old CSLR station building was demolished within the last few years :( However there is now a small free-standing steel rotunda composed of ventilation grills, as near as I can tell exactly above the lift shaft (corner of London Bridge Street and the former Railway Approach, immediately adjacent to the new viaduct span at Borough Market).

Ah-ha! and it's got doors too :-) That probably means you can still go down the staircase inside, to the platforms (it comes out in one of the passages about 2/3 way from the bottom of the main escalators to the platforms). It could even be an emergency exit from the station. https://goo.gl/maps/24eu1giEQFr Also associated with Site No 6 on this plan of the wartime air-raid shelters: http://www.perry.co.uk/maps/london_b...shelters_1.tif -- Roland Perry |

The associated foot tunnel was retained for access to the CSLR tunnels via new connecting shafts (the tunnel rings for these works are dated 1968). But after 25 years, I don't remember exactly how the various old and new works join up. I've been looking without success for any plan that might show all the passages, not just the old tunnels. ISTR the 1960s access steps came up inside the CSLR booking office, rather than using the lift shaft itself. http://www.leverton.org/tunnels/cslr/csl3.jpg is taken from the bottom of the lift shaft and shows the new steps ascending some yards away, up to the left. Open to correction on the above as always, and it would indeed be very interesting to know whether and how this has been retained.
