    Misleading title & thumbnail, pylons sunk into sediment is not a sunken tube station.

    Ah yes, if you're on the tube map, you're a tube station. West Croydon, Dundonald Road, Clapham Junction...  ...all tube stations.

    I was a school kid at the time of the bombing. Our class went on a trip to docklands on the DLR shortly after it reopened. I remember going past that building and seeing the blinds flapping out of the broken windows and the odd bit of paper flying out. It was all quite surreal.

    I remember the explosion - I lived in Dagenham at the time and was 11. I was at my friends house and the bang was so loud even that far away it made the windows shake and I thought her patio doors were going to explode!

    I remember hearing that explotion from my friend&apos;s house in Walthamstow. Of course at the time we just heard a loud bang, not knowing what it was

    I must admit, the new DLR trains bear a striking resemblance to a plague doctor, as if a transformation spell had been cast upon them, turning them into a train. However, I do not find this displeasing.

    The maps at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZFcGuhPRCU&amp;t=216">3:36</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZFcGuhPRCU&amp;t=330">5:30</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZFcGuhPRCU&amp;t=499">8:19</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZFcGuhPRCU&amp;t=710">11:50</a> are complete nonsense as are a lot of the so-called photos, especially <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZFcGuhPRCU&amp;t=527">8:47</a> where a chunk of Battersea power station is visible. The image of the Queen at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZFcGuhPRCU&amp;t=780">13:00</a> is false, as none of the high-rises had been built yet, and there is &nbsp;a 40cm drop shown between the train doors and platform. &nbsp;There are too many false images to list out. What is this idiocy?

    Very interesting video

    I have to say that I was confused as to why a TUBE STATION was sunk in the London Docks when it didn’t receive its TUBE STATION until 1999 especially when you’re referring to the DLR. &nbsp;I also found it odd the you displayed a train carriage in the video when describing the energy saving escalator. &nbsp;I realise that you probably can’t answer this question, why didn’t the police evacuate the whole area once they had discovered the truck containing the IRA bomb? &nbsp;It certainly would have saved both lives of the men killed in the blast.

    The Tube Station Sunk was a bit misleading, I too remember the bombing in 30 years ago in 1996, I was living at Highbury at the time, saw the devastation for myself, and on the news 🗞️, other stuff related to the bombing that too complicated, although prudent to have mentioned the bombing on this film.
