Default 64 years ago this week

Today and the next two days marks the 64th anniversary of a three-day
period in which four London Underground stations were hit by enemy
bombs, causing the deaths of almost a hundred LU workers or civilians
sheltering from air-raids:

12/10/40 Trafalgar Square (Bakerloo, now Charing Cross) - 7
13/10/40 Bounds Green (Piccadilly) - 17
14/10/40 Balham (Northern) - 64 [minimum]
14/10/40 Camden Town (Northern) - 5
