This might help add a bit more shine to the tube in case you’re suffering from post-strike blues. On the second day of the strike, the London Transport Museum quietly announced that tickets are going on sale on Monday of next week for more tours down to the abandoned station Aldwych, and whereas before it’s been quite limited, they’re now opening it up for four days a week – all Thursdays to Sundays, throughout the month of June, so it should make it much easier to get tickets this time unlike on previous occasions when tickets have been limited.
Also, teasingly – this time it promises to “include some tunnels, and inter-connecting walkways – some of which have very rarely been seen by the public”. We’re not sure if that means we’ll get to see anything new from last time we went there, but we’ll be on the phone on Monday trying to get tickets too …
