In the second picture the Station Closed signs partly obscure the letters
"A N"

What word were these letters a part of, I wonder?


Strand - the original name of the station. It was changed to Aldwych in
1915.

Marylebone (Bakerloo Line) still has tiles proclaiming its original name -
Great Central.
