Odd question I know, but I'm going on this route tomorrow (to see the
Kelvedon Nuclear Bunker, as per an earlier query).

I had a serious ear operation last week and underground tube journeys or
sudden changes in pressure due to trains entering a tunnel can be dangerous
for the next couple of weeks.

Obviously, going into a tunnel by foot is fine. ;-)

I assume that the train to Brentwood, that stops at more stations, goes
slower than the Shenfield one. But even so, I wouldn't want to risk sudden
tunnels.

Thanks in advance!

Hiya -
I'm pleased to confirm that there are no railway tunnels between Stratford
and Brentwood .

There's always this chap...

But if you go in an all-stations stopping train, I think you'll be okay
here.

Can you do us a favour and video yourself for the whole trip, and upload any
ear explosions to U-tube next week? Make sure you sit between two Jehovah's
Witnesses for maximum comic effect. And wear a t-shirt that says "I've got
AIDS".

Are there lifts in the bunker? Can you avoid using them?

No lifts as far as I can remember. But best to double check - I don't
want to be held responsible!

Even if there is a lift, there will always be a stairway equivalent for
fire escape purposes, so I'll just take that.

Thanks!! Yes, doesn't look too long so I guess the pressure won't be too
bad when it goes through, especially as:

(a) I'll be on the slower, Brentford train, and
(b) being a residential area, I guess the train isn't at full speed when
going through that "tunnel" thingy.

Oh, thanks for the laugh about the Witnesses. :-)

Quite true. Hadn't even thought of that.

I won't sit at a window seat then. Not that that would make an awful lot of
difference, but still.....

It will be braking for the main station, and isn't a tube, more of a
large roof
