A contributor to The Robert Elms Show on BBC Radio London has just claimed there are secret underground train lines between Buckingham Palace and various other London sites. Nifty conspiracy theory, or fact? There are plenty of semi-secret tunnels connecting government buildings in central London, and some may indeed have connections to the Underground, but I doubt that there are trains running in them. At most, they may have airport-style electric buggies for people and 'cargo' (eg, boxes of files). |

Plenty of things can be facts (ie what is rumoured is actually true) while being closely-guarded secrets. I think you are using "fact" to mean "widely-known in the public domain". |

Nifty conspiracy theory, or fact? -- Brian I am assuming that you mean the Winbuck line that has only one intermediate station at Northolt. IIRC it was built in the 50's using Icelandic miners who were shipped back home after the project was completed. Test trains are run on the first Thursday of every month, in case of power fail there is a back up facility at Windsor Castle that consists of 5000 hamster wheels using 20,000 hamsters. There is a secret hamster farm behind Eton Station. SB |

There could well be a small passageway between buck house and perhaps the nearest tube station however. This sort of thing certainly isn't unheard of. B2003 |
