London Underground meets the twilight zone…?

Filed under Transport

The following suggestion came from a Guardian newspaper reader and suggests that the London Underground might have more mysteries than previously thought, perhaps even entering into the realms of the twilight zone.

The reader known only as “KS66″ suggests you do the following northbound trip on the underground which creates an infinite travel loop.

Harry Potter’s Platform 9¾ is not the only weird feature of King’s Cross. it is also one end of possibly the only place in the universe where you can go on an “infinite loop” by continuously taking the “northbound” tube. Sounds impossible? Welcome to the twilight zone. Go to King’s Cross and take the Northern line “northbound”, at the next stop get off at Euston. Now take the “northbound” Victoria line, and at the next stop get off at King’s Cross!” – KS66

We’d be interested to know if anyone has tried this and even more interested to know if you actually came back without vanishing into an inter-dimensional portal (or even made it without a train breaking down!).

The Transport for London Underground maps might give a clue to this, or possibly even other quirks of the underground.

Finally – are there such quirks available with Boris Bikes?
