EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of a section of the underground railway tunnel on the City Line in London, taken in the year 1894. This historic image offers a glimpse into the early days of the underground railway system, which revolutionized transportation in the city. The City Line originally ran from City (now Bank) to Stockwell, passing through Borough, Elephant & Castle, Kennington, and Oval. The photograph reveals the intricate engineering of the tunnel, with its round, cast-iron shell and hydraulic exhaust pipes. The ironwork is adorned with intricate patterns and designs, a testament to the craftsmanship of the era. The tunnel's walls are lined with shell tiles, which were commonly used in Victorian-era tunnels for their insulating properties. The City Line was one of the first electric underground railways in the world, and this photograph captures the essence of the technology in use. The train, though not visible in the image, would have been propelled by an electric motor, providing a smoother and faster journey than the steam-powered trains of the time. This photograph is a reminder of the ingenuity and innovation of the Victorian era, a time when London's transportation network was transformed through the development of the underground railway system. Today, the City Line is part of the Northern Line, continuing to serve the people of London and connecting them to the heart of the city.
