"More Tube delays on the way
Waterloo, City and Northern lines need to be closed for vital
repair work.

By Danny Brierley

LONDONERS have been warned to expect closures on three busy

Tube
lines
for months at a time.

Sections of the Waterloo, City and Northern lines need to be

closed
for
vital repair work to be carried out.


And for that matter how do they intend to close a 'section' of

the
Waterloo and City line?

Well, I suppose single track with one train would work ;-D

Nah! They'll close one half or the other, so you can go from

Waterloo
to a
point underneath the Thames and than have to walk the rest of the

way
;-)

Perhaps they'll use the secret platforms at Blackfriars ;-)


Judging by the distance you have to walk at Bank to get to the W&C I

think
the platforms are at Blackfriars already!

I suppose it is actually that way round. I've always perceived it as
the Central Line being miles away.
