Entry: The Station by Station Guide to the London Underground - East London Line - A3660310
Author: AlexAshman (Scout) - U566116
This is the third part of the London Underground guide to enter Peer Review, and as with the Victoria line I have added as much as I know / have found out, and now need your help to get the entry through.
So - any comments?

I don't think I've ever even been on this line, but this is looking great.
I'm so pleased you're motoring on with this, AA. Great work!

This is a line you don't hear much of over the tannoys. Can't be any help with the stations though, sorry!

I really like these entries. Good work.
You have the Royal London twice under Whitechapel. This was one of Jack the Ripper's haunts if you want to add a bit more local colour.
Similarily, for Wapping, you could mention the printer's strike/battle with Murdoch.

I've added the Jack the Ripper bit, but I'm in a rush so I'll look up the Murdoch thing later.

Ok - I've added the Murdoch bit, and put in a line about the Krays next to Jack the Ripper.
What a pleasant place East London is

is it worth noting that Walford is fictionally on this line (I think)

Danny B Posted Dec 14, 2005
I'm a little embarrassed that I know this, but Walford East station is supposed to be on the District line. According to the BBC Eastenders site, it replaces Bromley-By-Bow on Tube maps seen in the programme.

Keep up the good work, Alex

I've already got a section on fictional stations in the main entry A3363833, but I'll add that link

Your Guide Entry has just been picked from Peer Review by one of our Scouts, and is now heading off into the Editorial Process, which ends with publication in the Edited Guide. We've therefore moved this Review Conversation out of Peer Review and to the entry itself.
If you'd like to know what happens now, check out the page on 'What Happens after your Entry has been Recommended?' at EditedGuide-Process. We hope this explains everything.
Thanks for contributing to the Edited Guide!
