Project Description

Sherlock Holmes mosaics at Baker Street station on the Bakerloo Line.

The aim of this project is to create a guide to every station, past and present, of the London Underground. The sorts of details required for each station are:

  • Information which could help passengers to get around more easily, such as interchanges to avoid at certain stations.
  • Unusual features of the station.
  • The history and 'evolution' of the station.
  • Other interesting things you may find.

However, there are no strict rules saying that each entry must contain the same facts, and so any information about a station is useful.
