![]() Paul Terry wrote: One of the loopier (literally) ideas emanating out of County Hall was the LCC's post-war plan (concocted in 1943) for four mainline railway loops in deep-level tunnels that would link existing terminii. One (starting from Bermondsey) passed through London Bridge and Waterloo, then crossed the Thames beneath Westminster Bridge and returned through Charing Cross, Blackfriars, Cannon Street and back out round to London Bridge. Another ran roughly under the N, E and S parts of the Circle line - but when it got to Victoria cut straight up under Hyde Park to get to Paddington. The other two linked various parts of these two main loops. Are there any web sites with plans drawings etc of this ? -- Nick |
