Shepherd's Bush Central Line
Travelling through this station recently it looks like they've started
retiling -- but in white! Now while I agree that the dark green tiles that were there in the station's old incarnation always made it feel quite gloomy and oppressive, they also made it a rather unique station. I think it'll be a shame to have lost that. Iain |

As a matter of interest, why were the dark green tiles chosen? I assume there was some presumed link with "Shepherd's Bush (Green)", but it's not intuitively obvious. |

That of the goths, obviously But.. but... but... the Ostrogoths or the Visigoths? Presumably the Visigoths, them being the goths from the west. Although they are to the east of us. And don't get me started on goths invading Germania... |
