The Festival Of Britain – Maps, Football, Guidebooks. Science And Abram Games
This is part of a series researching the Festival of Britain in 1951.
http://alondoninheritance.com/events...s/abram_games/ This one includes a description of London Transport's involvement, especially maps of Festival bus routes, and also the Underground with station names marked incl. many that have now gone such as Trafalgar Square (remember that?). In other web pages of the series are links to film clips of Rowland Emmett's "Far Tottering and Oyster Creek Branch Railway." http://www.lakesideminiaturerailway....rtottering.htm ==== |

Well, it's not really gone, just merged with Charing Cross. |

Yes I still in my mind call Embankment station "Charing Cross" and Charing Cross "Trafalgar Square". The Trafalgar Square entance is still there. I went to the Festival of Britain. John |
