I’ve had purple walls in my bedroom for nearly 20 years. Since the #LizLine moquette debuted on the London Transport Museum Shop website, I’ve refreshed the bedroom decor with 3x Elizabeth Line Mini Moquette Cushions and an Elizabeth Line Moquette Design Lambswool Throw. They complement the five framed water themed London Underground destination posters above my headboard. (Nearly the whole house had London Underground posters of various sizes. I simply adore them!)

@@thomashrubecky1663 That's attention to detail for you. One of those cushions ought to be with you every time you have to ride this beautiful line for more than a couple of stops.

So, like the Hitachi 'IETs', there's barely a scrap of foam between the hard shell of the seat and the seat of your pants.

The advert surround effect is due to the totems being exactly in the centre of the walkway tunnel.

They show the northern line black strip but the red strip is omitted. We thought we had found an error but when asking about it, it was said that a computer simulation predicting the flow of people around the tube network had designed it that way. They didn't want to direct people from the EL to the Central Line from Farringdon to TCR. To apparently ease congestion. Sorry if that's a bit confusing but hope it makes sense. Just another little thing we noticed at Farringdon. You'll notice it now lol

Until fairly recently the old LNER barrier still exited inside, with the gates to close off the station and the benches on the platforms had cast LNER ironwork.

Geoff, I just found a secret way how to go to the Elizabeth Line platforms if you're getting off from the Central Line at Tottenham Court Road. I noticed that if you're following the Elizabeth Line signage when you get off from the Central Line train, it will lead you to the gates where you have to tap out and tap in again but it'll cost your journey cuz you tapped out of the gates. But I found a secret way to the Elizabeth Line without touching out. From Central Line, just simply follow the signage of the Northern Line, go through the platforms to follow the Elizabeth Line platforms where you can see stairs in front of you on the other end of the Northern Line platforms and then just simply follow directions of the Elizabeth Line until you arrived without touching out.

I also wanted to ask, if you or other commenters should feel inclined to reply, for suggestions about what to do to nurture his love of trains. He loves to visit train stations and level crossings and travel by train, of course. We go to miniature railways when we get an opportunity, he has a tube map that he likes to study and he spends several hours a day making a Brio train track. So for those of you who have grown up as train lovers - do you have any other suggestions for things we can do?

Excellent video, Geoff. The secrets that you feature in these videos seem usually to be associated with stations of slightly older vintage, so to see that some of the most modern stations on the network still have their secrets and quirks was definitely very enlightening. I note the caption towards the end that states that Twyford is the least-used station on the Elizabeth Line system. Assuming that I am using the correct statistics (which isn't a very reasonable assumption by any means, as I'm not very observant), I believe that Iver is the least used station, recording around 91,000 passengers last year, with Taplow a close second on 94,000, and Twyford welcoming roughly 200,000. Speaking of Taplow, an interesting historical fact: it was the first terminus of the GWR line from Paddington, from opening in 1838 to the extension to Twyford in 1839 (though the station was re-sited and rebuilt at a later date) and that the new station was built with large and ornate station buildings, certainly for such an inconvenient station (roughly two miles south of the village it purports to serve) - the reason (at least partially) being that it was the local station for several major GWR shareholders!

But only if you are referring to the entirety of ones time on the bench. The act of lowering oneself onto the bench might also be the past event. Having sat myself down, I am sat down. I am also sitting, for what it's worth, but in the context of a day's being out and about, the change from normal, rather than present attitude, is the notable information. I don't know how that would fit into a traditional grammar, and one may wish to avoid it in formal speech, but language is living, and I hear this distinction well enough.

But SAT is always past tense. 'Yesterday I SAT on a bench'. You might get away with something like: 'The waiter SAT us at a corner table' but it would be more grammatically correct if you used 'We were SEATED at a corner table by the waiter' instead.
