"When the Underground first opened in 1863, It relied on steam trains to pull its carriages - a system used by some parts of the network until the 1960sl Electricity was first used to power trains in 1890, and soon became the standard on our network."
A very happy new year to you! I sure hope you're having a good time so far and can't wait to see what's in store for use in 2020. It’s always a good idea to have an icebreaker, explore and go for a walking tour either in a group or solo. Passing by the Foundling museum in London was an eye opener and reminded me about how much hidden history is available in this amazing city!
If you have travelled over London Bridge or Tower bridge, you might have noticed a huge ship permanently moored on the river.
I’m a London, UK boomer and one of the growing numbers of travel bloggers and a believer of wellbeing through travel.
I write to inspire and motivate women like me, who like exploring historical London and beyond in a fun, healthy and imaginative way.
Most of my trips are by foot while others are by wheels or wings.
