[@Inkyminkyzizwoz]

What you say about the decline of unnecessary stations followed by a resurgence reminds me of what happened in Liverpool in the 1960s and 70s. They closed Exchange and Central High Level in order to concentrate all the long distance services at Lime Street, and more recently there was talk of needing a new station for HS2 and NPR because Lime Street wouldn't be able to cope, thus bringing it full circle!

[@michaeljohnson9421]

A Reliant Robin at 9.32 - an interesting vehicle to find lurking in a City of London car park. It looks like a camper conversion, which is a bold move on somebody's part. I'd like to see it with that roof popped up. Unexpected crossover between Jago Hazzard and HubNut!

Jago, the City Bridge Foundation looks after five bridges over the Thames - Tower, London, Southwark, Blackfriars and Millennium. Yes it's very weird that part of the City of London is south of the river. It's not even a square mile, especially if you include Epping Forest.

The Widened Lines seem to be always mentioned in one sentence. But what a massive project that must have been, widening the cut-and cover and several stations.

[@Bobrogers99]

It's been many years since I've been in London, but when visiting there I always appreciated that there was a Tube or rail station close to where I was and where I wanted to go. Sometimes it required using my map and planning, but I could always get from here to there by train.

[@brianparker663]

Wasn't there a short-lived Snow Hill station in the vicinity of Smithfield? If so, that could also be included - even if well buried!

[@hairyairey]

Snow Hill was slightly north of Holborn Viaduct, the AWS Head Office is on some of its land.

[@srfurley]

You pass through it just before entering City Thameslink from the South. It was renamed Holborn Viaduct Low Level briefly before closing in 1916 with the withdrawal of the Victoria -Moorgate Street service, the last regular passenger service through the Snow Hill tunnel until it was reopened for Thameslink.. when the line first reopened was possible to see some small traces of the station, such as a rectangular panel on the wall which was probably for posters or timetables. A photograph taken during the reopening works also showed the remains of a seat, but I think this had gone when the line opened.

[@ianhelps3749]

While we're on the subject of too many stations.. I was in Amsterdam last weekend, and I had to meet someone in Almere which is basically a new town outside Amsterdam. This place has no less than six stations on the same line. From west to east there is Almere Poort , Almere Muziekwijk, Almere Centrum, Almere Buiten, Almere Park and Almere Oostvaarders where I had to get off. I just thought it was unusual. Acton maybe has more stations but they are on different lines.

[@Jorge-lh6px]

New York is a city that closed a majority of its commuter rail stations in the central districts, with them being consolidated at either Penn Station or Grand Central. Corridors like Park Avenue and the West Side line had plenty, and some of the elevated rail lines had stations along with the subway. However, in an era where tunnelling was very difficult across the Hudson (and still difficult to this day), we never had the ridiculous amounts of central stations that London has.

[@tonylancaster8704]

First time first to comment.I think the view from Blackfriars station down the river towards tower bridge is one of the best views in London.

The bridges connecting to the City of London, including Blackfriars Bridge, are the responsibility of the CoL City Bridge Foundation , including the point at which they land on the southbank - even if they are not technically part of the CoL. The parklet at 4:51 is Rennie Garden and because it is on the bridge, the CoL look after it, although it is definitely geographically within the LB of Southwark.

What do you think about the possibility of more interchanges at Bow in the future. Within a very short distance you have the Hammersmith and City/District stopping at Bow Road and the DLR at Bow Church but you also have the Elizabeth Line underneath but not stopping and the C2C from Limehouse running by at Bow Triangle. There is also a big warehouse and area off Rounton Road which was used by TFL for the Elizabeth line works. There is also a random offshoot from the c2c national rail line that crosses a bridge over Bow road where an old station was but I don't think has a regular service running over it. That bridge semi regularly has a tfl rail train parked on it.

Worse, some comedy act was stopping the gate guy responding, so I gained the attention of someone in the control room who overrode the loopy logic.

[@joermnyc]

The NYC subway was quite similar in the early days, you had 2 companies looking to put lines wherever possible (some in the hopes of driving the above ground elevated railways out of business), the IRT and the BMT, then the city itself got in on the game with their Independent (IND) lines. All of them competed for riders (and more space under the city. No free transfers between the 3, even if their stations were literally on top of each other (Bleecker Street on the local Lexington avenue line ran just above Broadway-Lafayette Street on the express and local IND that connects with the sixth avenue line. Because Bleecker Street was orignally built with offset platforms, it just took literally knocking down a wall to connect the downtown IRT to the IND, but it took decades to finally connect the uptown IRT to the IND (by abandoning the north half of the platform and just building a new extension farther south.)

[@birdbrain4445]

I know it sounds like an obvious thing to say, but honestly yeah - London is absolutely dotted with stations former and current; you could easily chain them together to cross much of Greater London if you were so inclined. 4:54 I think it's been talked about already but basically, the City of London Corporation is responsible for the maintenance and ownership of 5 bridges that cross the Thames: Millennium Bridge, Southwark Bridge, London Bridge, Tower Bridge and relevantly here, Blackfriars Bridge. That responsibility comes from being the trustee of the Bridge House Estates, a charity of medieval origin. Blackfriars Bridge is, as I understand, the only one entirely within the City's boundaries. Whilst the Corporation is responsible for those 5, they cross local authority boundaries (and in the case of Tower Bridge it never even crosses into City proper.) By contrast, the City's ward of Castle Baynard extends to include the entire span of the bridge. I'm not entirely sure why this is the only bridge that is the case for, but it is the case. This'll be why that little plot of green you were at is a part of the City; it's at the southern end of the bridge. Resulting trivia - this makes the City of London one of only two jurisdictions in London to be on both sides of the Thames. The other of course, is the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames and as the City is not a borough, the latter is the only borough to do so. You (well not you Jago I'm sure you know this; general 'you') may also wonder how the Corporation is responsible for a bridge entirely outside of the City - the Corporation actually owns a lot of land outside of the City, and even outside of Greater London for that matter - specifically in Essex, Buckinghamshire and Surrey. Someone on Reddit made a map that illustrates this, and it doesn't even include everything for readability's sake: www.reddit.com/r/MapPorn/comments/18um0tk/all_land_owned_and_operated_by_the_city_of_london/ Consider also how much newer Greater London, or even the preceding County of London, are compared to both the City and Corporation. London used to be far smaller until relatively recently, both functionally and officially, so much of that land now in London was until relatively recently far outside of it. Great video!

Under different circumstances and better planning could they have developed a through cross London mainline rail viaduct link between Holborn Viaduct and Broad Street by way of the Smithfield Goods Depot, White Cross Street Goods Depot and thereby avoiding Finsbury Circus, since the route would be connecting two terminus and be nowhere near Bank to raise the ire of the City of London?
