This is a Central line train to "Woodford via Hainault"- sadly, not no more!

Edited by Tubeguru: I take it you didn't mean to post one of your answers to the thread?

You lot have swamped my inbox with entries for these two photos. Evidently, I am not trying hard enough...

Photo 15.02:
This is a photo of only one of two Tube stations to have an entrance incorporated into a Grade 1 listed building. The building shown is the Bank of England, which obviously gives the station its name- BANK.

Those laughing all the way to the bank:
--jamesthegill
--steeevooo
--barrykas
--Nigel
--uefacup81
--starkey
--jbom
--Going Underground
--garion
--Edgemaster
--tubeguru
--RichieG
--scrxisi
--greatkingrat

Those who are crying into thier soup:
--nozzacook (Westminster)
--dudey (Cannon Street)
============================================
Photo 15.04 shows the "Shell Centre" entrance to WATERLOO on York Road. This entrance being so called because of the building shown above being the former headquarters of the Shell oil company. The high level walkway leads direct into the mainline station concourse (by the former Eurostar terminal) it also led, via the building, to the Royal Festival Hall but I think this has been blocked off now.

Those who have struck gold:
--jamesthegill
--steeevooo
--barrykas
--uefacup81
--starkey
--dudey
--jbom
--nozzacook
--garion
--Edgemaster
--tubeguru
--RichieG
--scrxisi
--greatkingrat

Those who are on the beach collecting shells:
--Going Underground (Chancery Lane)
--Nigel (Moorgate)

This concludes the quiz.

What a plonker I am - of course it's Waterloo, I went in that entrance only the other day. Having correctly got Bank, I mentally just leaped up the road, and was thinking about the walkways from the back of Moorgate into the Barbican.

Wow... two complete guesses there from me :)

Educated guesses though... (I think I may have used that bridge at some point...)

I would say that Tangy is obviously a genius, but I wouldn't want to lie... ;)
