The TfL website described 7/7 as the worst day in the Underground's
history, which surely means their collective memory does not go
back as far as WW11 and various events at Bank, Balham and Bethnal
Green? (Though it would be bad taste to play a cynical numbers game
re.victims.)


Worse peace time day I think you'll find.


The actual words are "This is the worst incident in the history of
London underground".


Is that "London underground" what has become the system or "London
Underground Limited"?

If the latter, then the statement is true since LU Ltd only came into
existence in 1984. ;-)
