Product Info

Discover the secrets of the Green Park Underground Station on a guided tour. Explore the hidden station within a station; Dover Street, which was built to serve the Great Northern, Piccadilly, and Brompton Railway.

Journey deep underground and explore the early 20th-century former passageways and lift landings from the days of Dover Street station. Spot the original vintage signs and tiles that still adorn the walls, which were last seen by the traveling public in the 1930s.

Hear how Dover Street played a pivotal role during the Second World War, offering a place for the London Transport Executive Board to safely meet during air raids and helping ensure that the Underground’s operations continued to run. Discover where Lord Ashfield, then chairman of the London Passenger Transport Board, had his bedroom secretly fitted at the heart of the station.

Hear how in the 1960s and 1970s, Green Park expanded to accommodate two post-war lines, the Victoria and Jubilee lines. Discover how it played a part in modernizing London’s ageing transport infrastructure in the post-war economic boom.

Step into the impressive large ventilation tunnels that hide behind the platforms of Green Park to provide essential air cooling to the Victoria and Jubilee lines. Peer down on the Tube trains through a secret ventilation shaft and get a unique view that is normally closed to the public on the stations’ platforms.
