For all you geeky trainspotters, the Northern Line will be 100 years old next month, and to celebrate LUL will be having two days of activities.
On the 23 June, Staff, friends & families are invited to an open day at Golders Green depot for a guided tour. There will also be ice creams, face painting & an oppurtunity for visitors to have their photos taken in a drivers cab.
On the 24 June, LUL will be putting an original 1938 stock train back into passenger service for 3 trips.
The first 2 trips are open to staff, customers and will cost £20 each which will include a commemorative book worth £10 on the history of the Charing X, Euston & Hampstead Railway £10.
The 3rd trip is only for staff and is free :P
If anyone (non staff) is interested, either contact LUL at the usual number or send a cheque payable to London Underground, Support Manager Northern Line, 4th Floor, 20 Cranbourne Street, London, WC2H 7RQ and specify which train ride you would like to reserve a place on:
1st ride is at 11:00 am, 2nd ride is 14:30 and each ride will last around 2 hours starting at Golders Green - Charing X - Mill Hill East - Kennington - Golders Green. Also remember to enclose a SAE with your payment.
