Post Office Railway - mothballed?

The Tower Subway started off with a small cable car, then became a footway, which closed when Tower Bridge opened. It was then used for hydraulic power mains, and water mains were also put through it. After the London Hydraulic Power Company closed (in 1977) it was used for fibre optic cables. http://www.subbrit.org.uk/sb-sites/s...ay/index.shtml Could be used to help redistribute 'Boris bikes' to different docking stations around central London. (I only throw that in there for the potential amusement factor lest Bozza finds himself racking his brain for a new use for it, and coming up with that as his latest wheeze...) Otherwise, rubber dinghy rapids. |
