Description

This is the story of a now-disused branch of the Underground between Holborn and Aldwych. Although just a quarter of a mile long, it was a hopeless enterprise from the early 20th century beginnings and never covered its costs. For such a small stretch of railway, it has a surprisingly colourful history, especially during wartime and when its lengthy disused spaces have been used for experimental design work and film jobs. In an attempt to make something more of it, extension of the branch frequently beckoned but never came. The station at Aldwych and the running line to Holborn remain today, but not for passengers.
