    Well that took me back a few years!
    Between 1965 & 1970 I was a student at the London College of Printing. I lived in Wembley and travelled from Stonebridge Park station to the Elephant, Monday to Friday over that time. The trains were 1938 stock in those days if I remember correctly, and there was even one ‘smoking’ carriage!
    Also have a memory of freezing on Queens Park Station waiting for a Euston train to continue north if the Bakerloo terminated there.

  • @henreereeman8529

    Great video! Have to say though that reopening Camberwell and Walworth Road stations would be hugely beneficial for the local areas which are quite badly served by trains at the moment (because the distance between Elephant and Castle and Loughborough Junction is really quite big). I hope they reopen at least one of these stations in the future to serve some quite dense neighbourhoods

    • @Nooticus
      @Nooticus 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I’ve been hoping so for years (as a North Londoner who just wants to see a well connected city) but unfortunately I doubt it’ll happen. The construction on a line as busy and densely populated as this one will probably be prohibitively expensive

  • @BermondseySteve
    @BermondseySteve 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

    Great video, as always! Lots of info, presented well. Thank you! I'm a Yank, but lived in the area in '84, so 'the Elephant' was our local Tube. We have special memories of the lovely old London Transport Leslie Green-designed buildings, and we did notice the tiles and the general old-fashioned feeling of the station, along with the lovely old iron-work & fixtures. It was also a great memory for us to think of all the generations of S. Londoners who came through that station to get the 'Norvern Line' or the Bakerloo, and to remember the bravery of Londoners in WWII who took refuge in the deep stations. When returning to the E & C going south from Camden Tube, we always had to remember to read the front of the Northern Line trains for the direction "Morden via Bank," to be sure that the train wld stop at E & C. I do miss the area, even the '60s-era shopping centre there and our local Tesco. I'm back in the States, unfortunately, and surely miss walking home with a Bermondsey "portion of chips, open" w/Sarson's malt vinegar & salt, and the Bermondsey Manze's pie & mash, the New Caledonian Mkt, the scent of coal fires in winter, and the best-ever Routemaster buses - a packed, warm & cozy refuge in winter nights, which allowed us the vast convenience of hopping on & off when we pleased! Some great years in the final years of an older-style, less hectic London. Lifetime memories!

    What a random event! I was just there at Elephant & Castle today! When this video released! Just arrived home from a week long trip to the UK and stayed in London over The Weeknd not far from Elephant & Castle but today was the first time we didn’t take the bus back, the 435, but took the Bakerloo line from Piccadilly to here. Mainly because my son and I wanted to go by train 😊. First time in the UK for him and the 8th for me but first in over 15 years.
    I passed that hand written sign at the bottom of the stairs! 😊

    I always liked the name of that station. You’re lucky to live in London. I’m sure there are times that you may not think it on days when it’s crowded, rainy, etc. But it truly is an amazing place, and I’ve been wanting to get back for years. We have a small chain of British pub/restaurants with 5 in the U.S. and 3 in Canada called Elephant & Castle. Having been to the U.K. many times, they always feel pretty true to their country of origin. They also used to be one of the only places that I could get Fuller’s London Pride and Porter on draft, and dispensed with traditional pump handles and at room temperature. Sadly the last time I was in a location my Fuller’s was ice cold, and when I asked about it the bartender didn’t seem to care or know what I was talking about. But they’re still decent places.

    The new shopping centre development incudes a new tube station entrance with escalators. The developer is paying to build it and TfL will be responsible for the fit out. This is scheduled for next year I think if funds can be found. Fingers crossed the new broom in Westminster may feel more generous towards TfL.

There was also an underpass which linked the two stations with St Georges Road. I was brought up just around the corner from there.

    Oh buddha, do I remember those spiral stairs. Thanks for bringing some of my memories back to life. Last millenia, almost half a century ago (early 1980's) when I was a wee lad I was on a school trip to London. Stayed at a cheap hotel near the Elephant & Castle tube station, London Park Hotel I think it was called, located behind the old churchyard/park. I remember how the locals were running through the churchyard in the evening, I guess it wasn't the safest place in London at night. There was also a nice little burger shop just on the other side of the railway viaduct.

    The building and those tiles are gorgeous. I love the mix of old and new. I will have to watch the video about how the station got its name. London has such unusual names for areas and tube stations. The more I watch, though, the more I realize how many of those names we have copied here in the States. We even have Hyde Park in Tampa, but ours is more of a city area to live with bars, not green space. Great video. I learn something each time.

    The backs of 1830s town houses you can see overlooking Lambeth North depot are in London Rd. I rented a dodgy flat at the top of one in the late 90s and my kitchen window had a fantastic view directly over the tracks. I could never convince anyone I lived in Lambeth North and not Elephant and Castle. I never received a lecky bill, which is just as well as the big 'portable' heater that came with the flat was a relic from the 1930s and must have cost a bomb to run.

    Bakerloo home from Paddington from trips to meet family. Second carriage from the front. Waiting for the points switch to know if the exit door was on the left or right. Happy days

    Watching this reminds me, RIP The Castle Tandoori, which was in the old shopping centre there.

    The old shopping centre closed down many local independent businesses and the plan for the new centre is big brand names and whoever pays the highest rent and the least tax. Signage from the Northern to the Bakerloo is appalling in the subways as you end up looping back on yourself. as part of the new shopping centre there were (in 2019) plans to future proof the Bakerloo platforms to allow for the Bakerloo extension and these were available in 3D vision on early versions of VR headsets.

    Hey Geoff! Let me guess, is Stratford, Hammersmith, Edgware Road, Kensington Olympia, Waterloo or Bank on the list? If you were to do Kensington Olympia you'd have to go on a weekend

    When I traveled to England in November 2019, I was staying near this station. That it was the terminus station of the Bakerloo line, was an interesting alternative in relation to buses.
    It's a pity, I remember, that outside this station my phone was stolen, but it's a detail. 😂.
    Anyway, when I see the video, it brings me good memories about the neighborhood, where I went to the Shopping Mall, used some bus lines and walked (too much).

    Of course there is also the plan that if they ever do build the Bakerloo extension then it will mean new replacement platforms oriented towards Burgess Park etc instead of the southerly orientation of the existing ones which were deliberately aimed towards Camberwell.
