Are you suggesting that every railway under the Thames was shut

That's my understanding, yes. Detailed in chapter XIII, The Second World
War, pages 127-8, of "The story of London's Underground", by London
Transport, first published 1963, revised and enlarged to 1972 in my copy.

What about the ELL tunnel at Wapping? Does that have flood doors?

I'm not sure it does but then the potential effect of a breach of the
under-river tunnel might have been regarded as less.
