Railway historian Tim Dunn and Siddy Holloway from the London Transport Museum  explore hidden areas of the London Underground that - despite being just feet away from where millions of people regularly travel - hardly anyone knows about. The pair explore abandoned tunnels, secret bunkers and hidden staircases that have been concealed from public view for years. They will use their unique and privileged access to tell the story of places including London's most clandestine tube station; the former terminus of the world's first electric railway; and a station now only accessible by getting a train driver to stop at just the right place, but which played a key role during the Second World War.

Secrets of the London Underground Air Dates


S04E07 - Northumberland Park and Finsbury Park Air Date: 13 August 2024 19:00 -

Sorry, but right now we don't have any sources for this episode.

Tim Dunn and Siddy Holloway get incredible access to the maintenance depot at Northumberland Park in north London, responsible for looking after the entire fleet of Victoria Line trains. Tim meets the team checking all the carriages, and sees the incredible precision needed to finely shave the metal wheels to keep them running smoothly on the tracks. Siddy climbs the 1960s control tower and finds a vintage control panel still in working order, directing the points on the track to make sure each Victoria Line train coming into the depot goes to the right place.

Tim and Siddy get to ride on the private service that links the depot with Seven Sisters station - alighting at its mysterious third platform.

At Finsbury Park station on the Victoria and Piccadilly lines, Siddy does a night-time track walk to access the now-disused tunnel which was part of an early experiment to run large electric mainline trains on the tube.

At the London Transport Museum in Covent Garden, Tim meets museum's CEO to hear about the importance of design across the tube network, and they look at the bespoke designs for seating fabric across different underground lines.

As Siddy descends deep into the station, she finds metallic tiles on the walls and cast iron segments in a disused lift shaft, each crucial relics of their era.
