  • 024 - Tottenham Court Road
    2023/02/21

    One of largest and the most complicated stations in London, Tottenham Court Road is the interchange between the Central and Northern lines of the London Underground, and the Elizabeth line. The station’s history is one of constant attempts to keep pace with increasing congestion, culminating in the spectacular reconstruction which commenced in 2009 as part of the Crossrail project. Tottenham Court Road may not have finished expanding yet, with provision made within the station’s passageways for access to the future Crossrail 2.

    Aside from its sheer size, Tottenham Court Road is famous for the intricate mosaics which cover many of the walls, created by Scottish artist Eduardo Paolozzi in the 1980s.

    Soaring above the station is the Centre Point tower, once highly controversial, and which lent its name to the Centrepoint charity.

  • 023 - Woodside Park (featuring Luke Agbaimoni AKA TubeMapper)
    2023/02/14

    We explore Woodside Park, a station which has retained many of its picturesque historic details, and talk to Luke Agbaimoni, aka Tubemapper, renowned photographer of the London Underground. 

    Woodside Park was opened by the Great Northern Railway in 1872, and became part of the Northern Line in 1940. We've covered the history of this section of railway in full detail in episode 004 - Totteridge and Whetstone.  

    Around Woodside Park we discover the disputed etymology of Tally Ho Corner, and the De Dion Bouton factory which may have built some of London's earliest motor buses.
