It was raining, so I was very excited travelling to Newbury Park Underground station.

Outside the entrance is a Grade II listed bus shelter, designed by Oliver Hill in 1937 but built after the war

I knew a puddle shot would look good here, so I took a shot as the 66 bus arrived

Favourite Stations - Charing Cross

Meet Lydia, an artist and author whose favourite London Underground station is Charing Cross.

She loves the station's beautiful architecture, intricate brickwork and historic character, and says it is the station she would most like to draw one day. Charing Cross is also her gateway to central London and Soho, an area filled with some of her favourite pubs.

Lydia is a pencil artist with an ambitious mission: to draw every pub in London. With more than 3,000 pubs across the capital, she has already completed around 350 drawings and estimates the project could take more than a decade to finish. For Lydia, it is about more than creating artwork; it is a way of celebrating London's rich pub culture and preserving these unique buildings through detailed illustrations. When asked why she has taken on such a huge challenge, Lydia admits it sounds a little crazy, but says her love of pubs and drawing makes it a perfect project.

Lydia enjoys visiting different neighbourhoods, discovering new places and documenting pubs of all kinds because she believes they all play an important role in London's history and community life. One of her favourite pubs near Charing Cross is The Ship and Shovel, a unique pub split across two separate buildings on either side of an alleyway and connected by an underground cellar. It is just one example of the fascinating stories and hidden gems Lydia encounters as she works towards her goal of drawing every pub in London.

Favourite Stations - Tower Gateway

Meet Momtaz, a colour expert with a passion for London’s transport network and her favourite station is Tower Gateway.

The Docklands Light Railway terminus has held a special place in her heart for years. As someone who lives at the other end of the DLR line, arriving at Tower Gateway always feels like coming home.

Momtaz loves the station’s unique character, from its striking windows to the dramatic escalator entrance and hidden back exit. Every angle of the station offers something interesting, making it one of her favourite places to pass through in London.

One of the station’s most unexpected features is the TfL shop tucked inside. As a fan of transport memorabilia, Momtaz enjoys browsing the DLR-themed merchandise and appreciates the smaller, more personal feel compared to larger TfL stores.

Her love for the DLR goes far beyond the station itself. Years ago, she wrote a letter telling the DLR how much she loved the railway and was delighted when they sent her 20 DLR-branded watches in return. She also enjoys the fun community spirit of the network, including DLR Dave, the DLR mascot, who even posed with her book, Hello Rainbow, on its release day.

For Momtaz, the DLR is more than just a way to travel. It’s a source of joy, memories and connection that keeps her coming back time and time again.

Lady In Red, Green Park

I love the colours on the Jubilee Line platform at Green Park station.

Dancer Viola was wearing a red dress, so I couldn't resist taking a quick photo of her at one of the most colourful locations on the London Underground.
