Tube Lines[1] say that "thousands of wall tiles will be removed and

the original design (which actually dates from 1939).


What an idiotic waste of time and money, it a tube station for
chrissakes.

So?

Given the very finite levels of time & resources for refurbishment of tube
stations.

Wasting it on hand made tiles + the time/expense of fitting them to a
*single* station just beggars belief.
