Can anyone out there, let me know where I can obtain copies of maps
that show all the twist and turns of the London Underground lines?

I often travel on the Northern (Bank) Line and it amazes me the how
the line twists, turns, dips etc. One dip is on the Northern
(Bank)northbound line between Angel and Kings Cross St Pancras. I like
it because it wakes me up before my stop. What causes such a dip?

Can't help thinking the dip that you discuss could be caused by the fact
that Angel is on a damn
great hill compared to Kings Cross. If you walk the same journey down
Pentonville Road you
should see what I mean.

Hope that helps

Darren

Although ISTR tube railways sometimes follow underground strata, they make
no attempt to follow surface terrain.
