Dark Thoughts

From behind the yellow line on the platform at Kensal Green, you can see trains
arriving through a long tunnel as they approach the London Underground station.

The lights in the dark tunnel look like they are cartoonish thought bubbles for
the Bakerloo line train.

We donated a rich seam of detail on what lies beneath the surface of the UK, to
two major libraries, for researchers to dig into.
The collection of 500+ books about mining, minerals and underground
infrastructure is the legacy of polymath and enthusiast Paul Sowan, who died in
June 2021.
He led our society as Chair for 20 years.

More symmetrical photography, however this one was pure luck. The train driver
must have knew I was about because they aligned the doors perfectly at the top

Greywell Tunnel. Standing at 1280 yards, it marks the now end of the Basingstoke
Canal. Perhaps if this had remained maybe Basingstoke would have looked very
different now, with its own Wharf. The tunnel now contains Europe's second
largest population of Natterer Bats.

Red Lights - Wapping

I love watching trains arriving & departing through the Thames Tunnel at Wapping
London Overground station. The platform curves immediately, meaning you can view
trains deep in the tunnel while standing well behind the yellow line
