EXCLUSIVE TO THE LONDON TUBE:  Tom has promised to produce some Piccadilly Line activities which are exclusive to 'The London Tube' - Watch this space for more details.

The Beck Line is spotted at Gloucester Road... actually, all the Nav Bar adverts are at Gloucester Road... and apparently it's haunted!  Watch out for the ghost elsewhere en route!  :o)

BETA REVIEW: UPDATED 27th JULY 2002
Tom Certainly has continued to put a lot of work into this promising route.  As the screenshot of Russell Square station below shows (note the London Tube advert).  At the very end of the station, the GLE (Graduated Lighting Effects) are used as you re-enter the tunnel sections.  These are also used very effectively on the entrance to stations too.
The route has what I like to call, a "Walk Through".  Markers are used at various points throughout the route explaining the history of the line and interesting facts.  Also, the history of the Piccadilly's disused stations comes into light (no Aldwych on this branch, sadly) at York Road, where we see a mysterious figure in white.... or is it just a trick of the light???
Keep watching the London Tube for more details.  A more in depth review will replace this one in several days time.

Russell Square station, as mentioned in the above review.

Note the London Buses hiding behind the bushes.

The attention to detail is amazing - Note the end wall at Southgate station and the traditional Piccadilly tunnel head wall.
