📺 “Round Arnos Grove” – Posting as Arnos Grove is one of my favourite tube stations (architecturally speaking). Probably it goes with Southgate for this branch of the Piccadilly Line. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=at41e8W4GwM

@transdiffusion It is truly weird that for all its veneration and fond memories #thetube has never been rebroadcast in its original format. A treasure trove of content for the time - lost in a quagmire of rights, ownership and bickering. So sad. What a joy it would be to see it unedited and broadcast at its original time slot from show 1 until its bitter end. 🫥

#TOTP with John Peel and Janice Long. Peelie's last appearance until 1995.

Lots of close-ups in the #BlowMonkeys performance, but the group seem to get lost on the huge stage.

#RandyCrawford a favourite of Steve Wright In The Afternoon. Not my bag, then or now.

"No bad language on this show", promises John, after #JoolsHolland referred to «groovy fuckers» on a live trailer just before the Friday show. Producers Peter McHugh and Royston Mayoh were fired from #TheTube.

I couldn’t resist snapping the man filming the woman waiting for the Tube

Happy Birthday, London Underground!

160 years ago today, the first passenger services ran across what is now part of the north side of the Circle line!

Here a train of S7 stock is leaving Baker Street, on the Hammersmith and City line, en route to Barking. A new special roundel has been designed for the occasion, which was unveiled today by the Mayor of London.

Every time a different train stock retires on London Underground, the staff work hard to give it a thanks and a good send-off. Here is the last D-Stock train in passenger service in 2017, arriving into Bow Road station on the District Line, around 6.20am, carrying a special headboard.
The usual passengers did not realise how special this train was!

📺 "The Four Kinds of Underground Station" – I'm always fascinated when I learn something new about #thetube. In this instance, how #TfL categorise their stations. I wonder how this system would apply to Montreal's metro? #transit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8pAkat8mc0Q

Put my TrainTrackr London Tube tracker in a frame and up on the wall, and it's officially the coolest thing I own. A bit of a bugger to photograph behind glass though.

It was 40 years ago. . . . but it seems like yesterday. #TheTube first broadcast on the UK’s new fourth national TV station #Channel4 on Friday November 5th 1982. I’m so proud to have been a small part of TV history - and apart from that the music was amazing. 🙏🏼

[1984] The Tube - Madonna performing 'Burning Up' and 'Holiday' live at Hacienda Club, Manchester.

At the time she wasn’t very well known outside of New York, but the executives at The Tube liked her and arranged for her to jump on a plane and head to a mucky little club in Manchester to sing to a baying crowd of ravers.

The studio was cold when this was taped, apparently.

@requiem @djsundog You know, when you construct a trap, you try to make it easy for your prey to fall int it. ;)

(Or to put it another way, if all we measure and optimize for is the number of people we can attract to a services/platforms, we will probably end up making traps.)

With #TheTube you are emphasizing knowledge sharing, empowering people to participate as equals, and you aren't trying to capture "#TheTube market", that will change the way things move forward.
