Those hanging signs look like lift indicators to me. I'll take a punt on Regent's Park.

Piccadilly Circus--today is the 80th anniversary of the station being re-opened with escalators supplanting the lifts.

I'd say Piccadilly Circus too, though I wouldn't have guessed the reason (definitely Bakerloo - but not Regent's Park, where the subway from the SB pfm goes under the NB pfm).

First in on PM was pgb correctly spotting Covent Garden, the lift area. Although no-one has worked out why this was chosen for the day....  *Click for a larger version* |

That's not the answer I'm looking for (1928 isn't relevant), beyond that I'll leave all comment to SE13  |

Actually, the first time I went there was a couple of years ago. I've passed through many times, but only alighted there the once. |

As of today it's opening later and closing earlier on certain days of the week until November... so was it chosen because yesterday was the last day of normal opening hours?
