RIP Bank southbound Platform February 25, 1900-January 15, 2022. It saw 22 US presidents, 25 UK prime ministers, 6 monarchs, and every person alive at the time of its opening die.
It’s sad to see the northern line southbound platform go but they do need to improve the station drastically. In opinion that isn’t the only northern line station that needs a platform extension. Moorgate needs another platform for the northern line, Old Street needs to have a platform extension as well, Clapham North Clapham South and Clapham Common as well need platform extensions. And on top of that another nine needs three extensions. One from Battersea power station to Clapham Junction and beyond. Two from From Mill Hill East probably going to Mill Hill Broadway and even maybe Saint Alban city (nation start a second platform at Mill Hill East station as well and the second track). And the third extension should be from Edgware to Bushey Heath.
@@transportandtheatrekid2298 the service would be really unbalanced then I think, and the bank branch is really quite atm so I’m not convinced it’s necessary
@@transportandtheatrekid2298 if the project isn’t ready for the closure, they can’t close it? What’s the point in closing the line if the tunnels aren’t ready to link up. And what’s the point of linking up the tunnels if the new platform isn’t ready to be connected to the rest of the station. If they could have done it during lockdown, they would have. Don’t be purposely dim.
where did you get that mask from Omari and I saw you get on at Moorgate I was intending to catch the last train did you expect to see you and Felix get on in the centre of the train
Not really angle used to be an island platfrom then they fllied in the island platform an then placed it in its current position that y it has such a wide platform

It's 2022 now champ
I've only ever caught a train once from there.
🤣🤣

Rest in Peace southbound Northern Line platform at Bank. It's nice knowing you. You will never be forgotten. 😭
the way that one guy stared at him when he was walking comically backwards
💀
Any plans to do another tube challenge similar to the snake challenge at all? I really enjoyed watching it!
Same
You lucky person. It was way too late for me and I wouldn't have made it home. Hope you enjoyed it.
Bump into Geoff at all ;) amazing video as ever! I’m not a Londoner but I wish I was
Where did you get that mask? I work on the northern line and haven't got one 🤣
Absolutely fantastic work team.. love your videos with commentary.. hello all the way from Melbourne, Australia..
Geoff mentioned that he wouldn't be there for the 0038.
Bank Station is always very busy. Hopefully, congestion will ease when the works are finished.
See "A Poem on the Underground Wall" particularly the line, "a man waits in the shadows."
Many thanks to the author for the story, it was interesting to listen!
rip my fellow platform i used to get on to get to school as a teenager
4:36 Moorgate is still open isn’t it...
The Northern Line is about to close soon between Moorgate & Kennington.
Would love to see what they have already built behind the wall, that would be neat.
Epic video, mate
Here from the new video. Awesome!

Get a jubilee line from Waterloo to bond st
Nice & interesting video, guys
Lovely video :)
In the loving memory of Old Bank Platform R. I. P. Don’t Cry it going to be open at Mid May New Southbound Platform
Do you think they would add platform edge doors to the new platform?
The 95 stock would have to be modified first, which is partially why Nine Elms and Battersea Power Station don't have them.
Northern Line 1995 Tube Stock
More like northern line 2440 stock
@@ashleyjiscool Good one 😂
So now your going back to heathrow for the first person ?
I mean they technically did close but theres going to open a new platform
It’s not shutting down forever, its just getting expanded.
It is as the tracks will be covered up, and the current platform will become a passenger concourse linking with a new platform.
Why did they close off the entire thing here when with london brodge, they kept the northbound open as a one way?
No way to turn trains around
They could go via Charing Cross southbound

Why have they permanently closed this platform?

That is cool! Good you were on the last 🙂
Bank station didn’t close forever it closed temporarily

Did you note down the number of the last ever train stopping at the current Bank southbound
where did you get that mask from Omari and I saw you get on at Moorgate I was intending to catch the last train did you expect to see you and Felix get on in the centre of the train
poggers
Mean this platform will RIP? Geoff say it’s only temporary close
The track there was filled in and a new, totally separate southbound platform was built
Getting the Angel station treatment…
