I know that to all intents and purposes, Monument is effectively a couple of extra platforms for Bank station, just with a different name. Since they've started the upgrade works at Bank, I've felt that although it is physically a seperate station, Cannon Street is essentially part of Bank as well. I suspect in the longer term, that may well actually happen.

Whatever the topic of the video is, always follows after a few seconds rolling in, a sense of joy and a smile. Thanks for sharing your passion and vision of this reticular and moving world.

If you're classing Monument & Bank as two separate stations (despite the subway connection), then could you say the same for the two Paddingtons (Praed Street and the Hammersmith lines)? Because the ramp into the mainline station is surely a street entrance to the Hammersmith lines, no?

It’s true that there’s no underground connection between the two Hammersmith stations, but, growing up there, we never considered them as “separate” stations. It’s probably close to 70m but you will have a very difficult job measuring it with your wheel (due to the traffic). Incidentally, back in the 50s, before Hammersmith Broadway became one-way, my father, a Metropolitan Police constable, would sometimes do “point duty” there (directing the traffic), standing on (iirc) a tiny island built in to the road.

I always wondered why there was never a passenger tunnel between the two Hammersmith stations.

Regarding the Walbrook entrance to Bank: you only do it once. It's a tediously long underground walk with few reference points. It seems faster walking overground to the entrance appropriately closest to your chosen line, especially now that negotiating Bank junction as a pedestrian is so much easier. It's a little like (but admittedly not quite as bad as) taking the underground walking link between Monument & Bank. Presumably the underground walk from the new Bank entrance on Cannon Street to the Bank platform will be a similarly featureless underground warren.

I remember reading somewhere that originally it was due to go all the way up to the park/Royal Albert Hall as part of Albertopolis. There was a downside: I used to wake up at about 5am mornings when the first tube ran: despite being quite a way from the station, the pedestrian tunnel acted as a conduit for the rumble of trains. I mostly got used to it.

An issue with going gateline-to-gateline is that (correct me if I'm wrong on this) the Walbrook gateline is down an escalator. The trundle-wheel will be still going up the escalator, so won't be measuring. Also we don't know where the gateline of the Abchurch entrance is because it hasn't opened yet.
