I museum of what ?

Park the few tube cars they've got ? And then what else .............

Result small collection, split away from other relics, accessible
only by a small lift. And, if retained as a part of the working
railway for filming purposes needing to meet Clause 24.

Would run into hundreds of thousand if not millions of £££ and there
are way better things to spend money on in LU .

You;ve also sucessfully broken away tube items from sub-surface items.


Not even lift access, only way down is the spiral staircase (not
suitable for anyone with mobility issues) or through the tunnel from
Holborn.

The closed, ex-Thameslink, bits of Moorgate/Barbican would be a far
better location for a museum.
Either that, or let the Museum Depot take over Ealing Common :-)
