[edit] Tower Bridge 'almost directly above'?
Tower Bridge is actually about 400m downstream (East) of the Subway. Is this really "directly above"? It's nearly half the distance between Tower Bridge and London Bridge.
- You're absolutely right. I've changed this. -- ChrisO 21:54, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
How can the Tower Subway be the oldest underground railway line, when the London Underground began operations in 1863?
- The key word is "tube". Earlier London underground lines were constructed using cut-and-cover methods, not tunnelling shields, etc. Paul W 12:15, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
