Default Bank to King George V "cabride" video on Google

If anybody's interested, I've uploaded a video of a journey from
Bank[1] to King George V. It was recorded using a cheap camcorder, the
windscreen was not as clean as it could have been, and just after
Canning Town there was a lot of glare from the sun.

The video runs for 21min 33secs and is at
http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...65880788185430

If this shows interest, I may do others with a better camcorder. The
original is a 158MB wmv file; perhaps another format may be better.
I will be on the uk.r meet on the Stalybridge parly on Saturday, if
anyone wants to discuss this.

[1] Actually starting from the tunnel portal; the in-tunnel section
came out black apart from the tunnel lights -- it was a *cheap*
camcorder! Can anyone tell me if this portal has a name?

Regards,

Clive


Where does the name King George V come from? Is it from the old KGV dock
system (sadly a shadow of it's former self)?
