Wasn't expecting so much of this video to be related to the Brunel's! It's all the more better for it. A great dive into the pre-history of London's underground.

the Thames is actually one of the cleanest rivers, actually now is the cleanest river in the world to go through a major city. it might not look like it due to sediment but in the 50's it was biologically dead , now it's teaming with life, it even has Sharks and 125 species of fish.

The London Underground, first underground railway operating from 1863 but with cut and cover method. First true deep level bored tube from 1890. London Transport operated from 1933 stopped using steam from 1961. Last steam locos ran for British Rail 1968, last for LT 1971 for depot duties. Last completely new line is Victoria line.

Very unfortunate fashion choices for AHD to go for that specs, beard and shirt combo. He looks like he's cosplaying as Rolf Harris. Probably felt his dayglo shell suit and cycling helmet made him look a bit sus but should have stuck to his guns.
