The Anonymous Widower

Into The Realm Of The Rabbits

The completed Bank Station Upgrade opened today and I went and took these pictures of what is now a rabbit warren of a station.

Note.

1. There are now three cross passages between the two Northern Line platforms.
2. There are two lifts between Cannon Street and the Northern Line and one extends to the Docklands Light Railway.
3. The Northern Line and Cannon Street are now connected by two sets of three very long escalators.
4. I took a walk to Cannon Street, whilst taking this pictures and from leaving the new entrance to being on a train out of Cannon Street, took mt five minutes.
5. After photographing the station, I walked to the bus stop for the 141 bus, which took me home. As there is now a new passage between the gate-line and the bus stop, it took just two minutes.

The new Cannon Street entrance is a practical, stylish and well designed and built addition to the Bank station complex.

I would let the same architects and builders loose on Camden Town, Holborn and Oxford Circus/Bond Street stations.
