The restoration of St. John's Woo Station

wrote: Tube Lines[1] say that "thousands of wall tiles will be removed and replaced with new hand-made tiles to replicate their original 1900s character", so it sounds as if they are indeed trying to replicate the original design (which actually dates from 1939). What an idiotic waste of time and money, it a tube station for chrissakes. So? Given the very finite levels of time & resources for refurbishment of tube stations. Wasting it on hand made tiles + the time/expense of fitting them to a *single* station just beggars belief. greg -- Delenda est Carthago |
