beneath Euston station to find a time capsule from the 1960s.

The tour started at the original Euston station of the Charing Cross,
Euston and Hampstead Railway. The station is one of Leslie Green’s
distinctive station designs and is the red building on the corner of
Melton Street and Drummond Street, on the western side of Euston
mainline station.

Thanks, I was just looking at your earlier one for Charing Cross,

and it looks like the escalators leading to the Jubilee platforms are
still there... I thought they'd been removed and reused elsewhere.

No, I've seen them. If you walk north on the A3211 from Parliament to
Embankment late at night, then work crews might have the doors to the
old station partially ajar.

What old station? The old Jubilee platforms are nowhere near the
Embankment. It sounds like you describing the doors to the tram subway.

"If you walk ... late at night ..." Alcohol-fuelled disorientation
perhaps? :-)
