Thanks to Matt Moore from The Telegraph who featured a couple of pictures from my blog for a article on Guerilla Rail & Road Signs. They’re spoof signs from around the world which fight back against ones we face each day telling us what or what (...)

My friend and neighbour Richard from Essential Travel, took a picture of a fairly rare sight on the District Line. Yesterday a graffiti’ed Tube pulled into Kew Gardens and it certainly took both him and me back to those 1970’s images of New (...)

Airwave is across all of the London Underground from today. Before you worry that it’s a huge advertising campaign from Wrigley’s chewing gum, it’s the roll out of a secure radio network for emergency services. The system had already (...)

Yesterday The Guardian reported that (not really surprisingly) plans to install airport-style x-ray machines in every Tube and mainline rail stations across the UK were ruled out. This was because passengers might find the delays caused by this a tad (...)
