[edit] Fake Buildings

Sorry if this sounds foolish but I heard some while ago that a certain part of the london subway - not sure which line, may even be gone now - was made in such a way that they couldn't have real buildings up anymore so they built fakes to either side of the road. I don't know much more about this but if it's true can you give me the name? Chooserr

You may be talking about the Circle/District Line bewteen Bayswater and Paddington. During the construction of the cut & cover tunnel nos 23 and 24 Leinster Gardens W2 were demolished. They were replaced with a painted facade that exists to this day. More details and some pics here. Sapient 18:58, 24 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] S Stock

Need to add how C & D stock is being replaced by S Stock around 2009...

Is it that soon? I think 2009 will be the earliest! Besides, the refurbished D stock isn't even finished yet! Ajn91 16:48, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Closed Stations

Is there much point in putting closed stations in the list of stations. I know it says that they are closed, but would it not be better to put them under a separate sub heading, or just leave them for the history section of the main LU page? Ajn91 16:48, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
