Surely there are no signs left at Waterloo which dates before the

Underground's signage heritage?

There really has been a lot of the Underground 'atmosphere' lost over
the last few years, and the present station refurbishments seem to be
continuing the trend.

Mind you at least one hanging glass sign in a Bakerloo Line lower
escalator circulating area had a painted out 'Camberwell' destination
below 'Elephant & Castle' and I have the photo to prove it.

Warwick Avenue?

Yes, I think so. In that area.

The last sign was at Maida Vale possibly gone now due to refurb the
other 2 stations were Warwick Avenue & Kilburn Park.

Quote:Plans were created in the 1930s to extend the line to the poorly-
served area of Camberwell, and powers were awarded to construct the
extension, but the war stopped any construction taking place, except
for some new sidings under the Walworth Road.

The plans were resurrected in the 1950s with an intermediate station
at Walworth, with some test tunnels being dug, but once again the
plans died. A further attempt was made in the 1970s, including a
further onward route from Camberwell to Peckham Rye station, but again
the extension plans disappeared..
