This is the second volume in a trilogy of books which explore the many fascinating styles of station to be found on the world-famous London Underground network.
There are seven 'tube' lines and this book covers all the stations on four of these deep-level lines:
- Central Line
- Waterloo & City Line
- Bakerloo Line
- Jubilee Line
The book starts with a brief description of the 'tube' network and its development, and then takes a ride along each of the four lines. Stations range from busy central London interchanges to quiet suburban stations, these are all are illustrated in full colour and have short captions relating to each station's history and design. At the back of the book there is a station index, and two maps covering Greater London and Central London which show these lines in the context of the Greater London rail network.
The third volume in the trilogy, not yet in publication, will cover the stations of the remaining three 'tube' lines, the Northern, Piccadilly and Victoria Lines.
Superbly illustrated throughout with over 450 colour photographs. Dual English and German text. 160 pages.
