what station doesnt exist? you pass through it on your journey between two other stations, but the train never stops

Down Street is the most famous.

Was going to say mornington crescent as it was closed for years but I think it reopened. Or marylebone station maybe.

If anyone's interested in abandoned underground stations, have a look at this site:

Maybe it's just me but I like that kind of thing

I love all things to do with the underground, don't know why but it's fascinating.

check out these two programs on youtube about the underground, i've lost count of how many times i've watched the first one.

the remaining parts are on youtube aswell.

Mansion House, Heathrow Terminal 4 (Four) and South Ealing.

Good effort! Mansion House was the one I knew already, can't believe I missed South Ealing.... doh!

Ok, my mum has now confirmed that the answer to my opening post IS indeed Knightsbridge. So I asked her how the question was actually worded. She said "A famous london street that has 6 consecutive consonants". She thought that because it doesn't say "contains 6 consecutive consonants" that it must be a 6 letter word only. Lol :rolleyes:

Enter an Underground station. Take a southbound tube for one stop. Get out. Take another southbound train for one stop. You are back at the first station.

Which two stations have you visited?

that's a tricky one, does it involve kennington tube station?

Kings Cross

South on the Victoria to Euston then south on the Northern to Kings Cross.

If I remember my "Souths" on that line, I always think East and West.
