It's a single part question today, but there is a bonus point available for working out why the location was chosen for today.  *Click image for a larger version* |

The Monument has been re-opened after refurbishment.

My answer sheet says Bank - closed passage between DLR and Central, Northern and W&C lines (taken 15th December 2007) We are still looking for the reason why this location was chosen for this day though.  *Click image for a larger version* |

Anything to do with people featured on recent banknotes?
If so, it is the anniversary of the death of Sir Edward Elgar, featured on the immediately previous £20 note which remains in circulation.

Clever, but not correct.
It is an anniversary of something though, but unrelated to banknotes.

more modern than that, and nothing to do with the Northern Line or its predecessors.

Is it the anniversary of the completion of the DLR extension to Bank?

I don't know if either of those are correct, but both are more recent than the answer I'm looking for.

It is W&C related, but it isn't stock related

The anniversary of the W&C passing to London Underground?  |
|
|

Post by astock5000 on Mar 1, 2009 22:44:10 GMT
The W&C became part of LU on 01/04/1994, so it can't be that.

Post by ruislip on Mar 1, 2009 23:44:39 GMT
The date in question is when London Transport paid British Rail 1 pound to acquire the W&C.
