Re: Adandoned Tube Stations
Yet another poorly researched/written article on the history of the Underground. Lords and Marlborough Road were not, as implied by the article, on the Bakerloo/Jubilee Line, and certainly not when the new branch opened "in 1940" - they were both on the Metropolitan Line and closed in 1939!

This sort of thing surfaces every few years, and the accuracy gets worst as time goes on ...Steeevooo wrote: ↑07 May 2021, 17:33 Yet another poorly researched/written article on the history of the Underground.

Indeed, as long as juicy clicks are achieved then why should they care about the actual content?

Re: Adandoned Tube Stations
MyLondon are renowned for reporting hideous inaccuracies and, to be frank, downright lies - they reported on a survey apparently done during the first lockdown about the restrictions which claimed they interviewed people who had been travelling on the Waterloo & City line... (which for anyone who may not have been keeping up has been entirely shut since March 2020)
