EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this map of the London Underground railway in 1906. This intricately detailed print showcases the extensive network of tunnels and tracks that crisscrossed beneath the bustling streets of London during the Edwardian era. The map reveals the Underground's impressive expansion in all directions, with new lines and routes extending from Hammersmith in the west to Finsbury Park in the north, and Kings Cross and Brompton in the northwest. The Metropolitan and District lines, two of the oldest and most well-established lines, are prominently featured, while the newer Piccadilly and Great Northern lines are also clearly visible. The map offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, illustrating the complexity and reach of London's underground transport system over a century ago. Traveling through the labyrinthine network of stations would have been an adventure in itself, as commuters navigated their way through the intricate web of tunnels and platforms. The cost of fares would have varied depending on the distance traveled, with prices ranging from a few pennies for short journeys to shillings for longer trips. This map serves as a testament to the ingenuity and ambition of the engineers and planners who brought the London Underground to life, transforming the way people moved around the city and connecting communities that were once isolated by distance. A must-have for history buffs, transport enthusiasts, and anyone with an appreciation for the rich history of London and its transport system.
