If you knew that then why waste your time :D and what I was asking about are not sirens. :rolleyes:

I'm sure that LU do have lots of direct phones, my first though that the phone in the photo is in a lift machine room and that it went to a lift landing? I have not seen any when using lift station but they may be behind a panel.

Martin, This is the underground section so although that's interesting although I think you might be thinking of something else needs to be in another group.

Phil, Perhaps alarms is the wrong word but I think the thread title gives it away.

Been doing some historical research into where alarms would have gone but have not been able to identify any location. I know they would have been removed now like a lot of other places but does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions.

Can anyone tell me what phones there are in these rooms and where they would go to. I was sent a photo (attached) and there is no dial so between two points?

Thanks for that but from my limited knowledge it would be 1 or 2 which would be displayed, so this is one of those oddities I'm sure there are more.

A couple of things 1. At Finsbury Park the signs they had for when trains entered and left the line have they been changed or is the wording still the same., cut out tripcock & cut in tripcock. 2. At Seven Sisters the signals that take you to depot would display a green aspect with indictor...

The information I have shows that the Victoria line plates are the same style as the Central line.

Bit of a historical question, does anyone know what room the Operating Manager was in before all the changes I think in the 1980s. I know the Head Controller was in room 222 with the Operating Manager nearby.

Thanks Dstock7080, I found a mention on Tubeprune's site but there was another one don't know if it had modern stock.

The only ones I know of are LU stations/control rooms and of couse the BTP but I don't think they will share. Perhaps on the open sections there may be a council camera but don't know of any.

Is there a list available both old and new stock. I'm sure I saw a list but can't find it.

Thanks for identifying what type of shaft. Can the fan be reversed if required?

Thinking about it the air flow coming south from Finchley Road once at swiss Cottage platforms would go up the escalators to the booking hall. For northbound trains the shaft would help I suppose.
