	Articles - London Underground
		While many stations on the surface involve only 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.
		Each station displays the Underground roundel, often containing the station's name in the central bar, both at entrances to the station and repeatedly along the platform so that they can easily be seen by passengers on arriving trains.
