    The train tunnel that links Wapping to Rotherhithe station was built in the 1820’s by Isambard Kingdom Brunel and his father. At one point it was pedestrianised and housed a thriving market.

    Depending on where you need to go, it may be a shorter walk from Shadwell (one stop away).

    No WiFi. Extremely short platforms. Despite the presence of lifts (which sometimes don't work) the station is not step-free as there are further stairs to reach the platforms.

    The smallest platforms, depth-wise, you're likely to find on any train station, but a great view of the Thames Tunnel.

    No benches to sit which is fun when you are waiting for the clapham junction train

    Take the stairs if you can, to see the cylindrical tunnel shaft built by the Brunels.

    Don't stick your foot in the lift doors to hold them open. Wait for the next lift. You'll get stuck and they'll call the fire brigade to get you out... ;0(

    “007: El mundo no basta”: 007 encuentra el camino bloqueado y toma por el Ornamental Canal según el GPS de la lancha. El protagonista hace una brusca maniobra y empapa a dos vigilantes de tráfico.
