Visitors have been able to take a tour of the Aldwych Tube Station, one of London's closed underground stations, which included a platform which stopped operating in 1914. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...ghost-Undergro... In what sense is it secret? The surface building is there for all to see, and was in regular service until the mid '90s (even if not very popular). Just about any holywood movie set in London seems to feature it. As I recall only one platform was used in latter years with a shuttle service to Holborn and it is the other platform that is 'secret'. |
