I've finally managed to see an episode of this. (I'm researching some
stuff to do with Camden Town from home today, so felt that this would
qualify as Continuing professional Development).

It's a *lot* of fun. I certainly have a soft spot for "Bakerloo"!

Oh well, back to writing about the tomb of Sir John Soane....... :-(

There are too many examples where reality is rather close to the cartoon

I've only seen the posters on the underground. What happened to the

The positive conductor rail was deleted on the grounds of "Don't try this
