In April 2018, Richard Thomas started a two-year project to visit the ends of every tube line in London – a total of 79 stations.
What was for a while a blog is shortly to be a photobook of each of these stations and their stories.
The book, which is currently being crowdfunded, will contain 90 pages and 79 colour and B&W photos – 79 stations, and 79 stories from around and about The End Of The Line.
Not just the stations, but also sometimes the author has picked the local area, such as footbridges and shops.
It will also include 276 pages with information about the sixteen TfL lines.
The book is being crowdfunded, and is available here at £35 for a signed copy when it is released.
This website has been running now for over a decade, and while advertising revenue contributes to funding the website, it doesn't cover the costs. That is why I have set up a facility with DonorBox where you can contribute to the costs of the website and time invested in writing and research for the news articles.
It's very similar to the way The Guardian and many smaller websites are now seeking to generate an income in the face of rising costs and declining advertising.
Whether it's a one-off donation or a regular giver, every additional support goes a long way to covering the running costs of this website, and keeping you regularly topped up doses of Londony news and facts.
If you like what you read on here, then please support the website here.
Wow! Thank you so much Ian…
Sounds good. I’m surprised there’s 79 stations though, I’d have thought there was an even number….
Most of the lines have several terminuses, for example, the Piccadilly line has Heathrow T5, Uxbridge and Cockfosters
