When in the basement, you could just about hear the Bakerloo line trains
passing below.
You can also hear them from certain parts of the basement of Shell
Centre (York Road, Waterloo). The building is constructed on a concrete

There's an Indian restaurant at the junction of Harper Road and Newington

the Northern Line trains pass by.

The food's very good, however, so don't let that put you off.
