Title: Hump, but not quite Harrington Post by: grahame on February 13, 2020, 16:23:23 I've always thought of these as "Harrington humps" ... but apparently not.
Quote The Hump is a pair of ramps and a short flat top, built from a glass-reinforced polymer ...

Title: Re: Hump, but not quite Harrington Post by: grahame on February 14, 2020, 07:16:21 Sorry, have I missed another tube programme? Unfortunately if it's on Sky, I can't afford that anyway!

1. on the train 2. Bank 3. Waterloo 4. I don't recognise those stairs. Possibly the other exit from the W&C line (at Waterloo) that I don't use. 5-8 Bank 9. Waterloo Title: Re: Hump, but not quite Harrington Post by: grahame on February 14, 2020, 09:27:22 Are those pictures in order? They're not in the order taken. Yes - the the 4th picture is at Waterloo having come off the rear of the platform on the arriving train and tapped out.
