London Underground - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Most platforms at deep tube stations have a pit excavated beneath the track. While many stations on the surface involve a short flight of stairs to gain access from street level, virtually all underground stations use some of the system's 410 escalators (each going at a speed of 145 ft per minute, approximately 1.65 miles per hour) 112 lifts, or a combination of both. In addition, some stations' walls are decorated in tile motifs that are unique to the station, such as profiles of Sherlock Holmes's head at Baker Street station, or a cross containing a crown at King's Cross St Pancras station. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/London_Underground   (4764 words)

babbage.tv :: October 2004 But as we passed through subsequent stations and I consulted our timetable it appeared we had discovered why it was late: it was slooow. In the end we were apparently fortunate: while Virgin had been terminating other trains at Watford Junction, ours was the first that was able to continue through in the end all the way to Euston. The train thus pulled into Ulverston station at 5:28pm, giving us two minutes to traverse a route that I now realised I had paid scant attention to in the morning. www.babbage.tv /dblog/2004/october   (5982 words)

Metropolitan Line - Enpsychlopedia Transport for London and Hertfordshire County Council are developing plans to divert the line from the current Watford station and re-route it over the disused Croxley Green branch line to Watford Junction. The first section was opened from near Paddington to Farringdon Street (now Farringdon station) in January 1863; work on the railway had begun in February 1860 using the "cut-and-cover" method of construction. It was the first Underground line, and thus the first subway in the world, opening on January 10, 1863 (however, parts of that initial section are no longer served by the Metropolitan Line, but by the Hammersmith and City, District and Circle lines). www.grohol.com /psypsych/Metropolitan_Line   (806 words)

Articles - London Underground To help prevent death, most deep tube stations have pits between the tracks at platforms; known as a 'suicide pit', their purpose is to let a body fall safely under the tracks and away from the path of an oncoming train. This will bring the Underground back to central Watford and the important main line station Watford Junction, but the current Watford (Metropolitan) station will probably close. In addition, many stations' walls are decorated in tile motifs that are unique to the station, such as profiles of Sherlock Holmes' head at Baker Street station or a cross containing a crown at King's Cross St Pancras station. www.wathcesa.com /articles/London_Underground   (5108 words)

Metropolitan Line. Who is Metropolitan Line? What is Metropolitan Line? Where is Metropolitan Line? Definition of Metropolitan Line. Meaning of Metropolitan Line. There are many additional branches and stations on existing branches which have either been abandoned or transferred to other railways and underground lines over the years. In its present-day form, the Metropolitan Line functions much like an overground suburban commuter railway: Baker Street station is its terminus, and as it reaches the outer suburbs of London it progressively branches off into several directions. From Chalfont and Latimer station trains can go to Amersham (as the majority do) or to Chesham. knowledgerush.com /kr/encyclopedia/Metropolitan_Line   (237 words)

Metropolitan Line - The current station is located in a housing estate by Cassiobury Park, rather than serving the centre of Watford. New stations would be provided at Ascot Road and Watford West.

Transport Plans for the London Area - West Croxley Metropolitan Line station and Watford West station on Railtrack's disused Croxley Green branch would be connected by a short stretch of new track passing to the north of the disused Croxley Green station. Stations from Ealing Common to Uxbridge currently have platforms at the "compromise height" because they are (or have been) served by small Piccadilly Line trains as well as large Metropolitan and District trains. The proposal now involved new parking space on the east side, with an access road crossing the Watford - St Albans line either via a new bridge with a sharp turn close to its summit (which is a safety concern) or via a new level crossing (which is also a safety concern). www.geocities.com /Athens/Acropolis/7069/tpftla_w.html   (8350 words)

Watford Junction station - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A scheme to divert the Metropolitan Line's Watford branch to Waford Junction via the disused Croxley Green branch may yet see the return of Tube trains, albeit formed of the Met's surface stock rather than the deep level stock of the Bakerloo Line.
