Every End Tube Station in One Day!!!
 
Well I had the crazy idea for the past few weeks after remember it had
been done by a couple of New Yorkers...

The mission was to travel the length of the London underground, to
visit everyone station from every tube line.

I am happy to announce that I have completed it and would like to
share this feat with you all. ;)

I am very glad it's over and was one hell of a long tube journey.
Taking just over 15 hours none stop on the move.

Laters,..

Described in that way, it is the well-known (over here anyway) "Tube
Challenge" - see www.tubechallenge.com
But it's not the challenge you actually set yourself, which, according
to your blog and the title of this thread, was to visit each end point
(terminus station) of each line (except the Circle Line presumably!),
not to visit every station.

You apparently chose to do it on a Sunday, which is convenient (or
cheating?) because the Waterloo & City line is closed.

I am happy to announce that I have completed it and would like to
share this feat with you all. ;)

Well done! However, it would have been useful to have a photo at every
terminus. I didn't notice High Barnet, Mill Hill East, Amersham,
Aldgate, Stanmore, Harrow & Wealdstone, Elephant & Castle, Richmond,
Hammersmith H&C, New Cross Gate, Walthamstow Central. Did you visit all
those?

What in fact was the route you took?
