66. Whitechapel


Saturday 18th October, 12.10pm

Another station I doubt I could have found on the map. I knew it was in the East End but it turns out my idea of the East End and the actual East End are very different!

It's also another station I ended up getting lost in thanks to Crossrail - it's going to be a stop on that line (which seems unlikely and makes me think it's punching above its weight) - so there's building works going on. To exit you had to cross from the eastbound platform to the westbound platform, and the exit was at one end, but it's not obviously signposted and I ended up wandering back to where I came from like a fool. I liked the way the platforms were open to the air though.
