Default Brompton Road Tube station sold for £53m

The above ground bit ceased to be anything to do with a tube station
80 years ago. Better to take one that has been less knocked about like
York Road or Aldwych if you want a museum.


Has someone paid £53m for *just* the below-ground-level bits of the
station?


What makes you think that?


Because of what you said about it ceasing to be "anything to do with a
tube station". You can't sell a tube station that isn't one any more.

Or do they mean "we've sold a site that used to be a tube station, but
hasn't been for a long time, apart from some bits below the surface".
