Given that the only bit of the tube that's 200 feet down is the run between Golders Green and Hampstead [1], which takes all of a minute or two to traverse, i don't think such a pitiful display of stamina is something a gentleman would advertise! Doesn't mean that it hasn't been done though eh?! :-) |

I believe North End's official name would have been Bull & Bush. Not clear which name offers the greatest innuendo potential, though. tom -- Plus, you gotta understand I can now type far, far faster than I can think.

I believe North End's official name would have been Bull & Bush. Not clear which name offers the greatest innuendo potential, though. actually, it's the other way around. The station was to be called "North End," but over the years the abandonned works aquired the erroneous name of "Bull and Bush" amongst LU workers. -- Nick Cooper [Carefully remove the detonators from my e-mail address to reply!] The London Underground at War, and in Films & TV: http://www.nickcooper.org.uk/ |
