The Waterloo & City line is a tube line operated by London Underground. Crossing under the Thames, it runs between Waterloo and Bank stations with no intermediate stops. Its primary traffic is bringing commuters from south-western England arriving into Waterloo mainline station to the City of London. As a primarily commuter link it does not operate on Sundays or public holidays.
It was opened on 11 July 1898, having been built by the Waterloo & City Railway Company. Bank station was originally named "City". It was the second electric tube railway to open in London, after the City and South London Railway (now part of the Northern line). Owned and operated by two mainline rail companies before nationalisation into British Rail, it was transferred to London Underground in 1994 following a major refurbishment and stock replacement. Entirely underground aside from a shaft at its Waterloo depot, the line is not connected to any other rail route; rolling stock is removed for refurbishment using a road crane.
Texas has a total of 254 counties, many cities, and numerous special districts, the most common of which is the independent school district.
County
Texas has a total of 254 counties, by far the largest number of counties of any state.
Each county is run by a five-member Commissioners' Court consisting of four commissioners elected from single-member districts (called commissioner precincts) and a county judge elected at-large. The county judge does not have authority to veto a decision of the commissioners court; the judge votes along with the commissioners (being the tie-breaker in close calls). In smaller counties, the county judge actually does perform judicial duties, but in larger counties the judge's role is limited to serving on the commissioners court and certifying elections. Certain officials, such as the sheriff and tax collector, are elected separately by the voters, but the commissioners court determines their office budgets, and sets overall county policy. All county elections are partisan, and commissioner precincts are redistricted after each ten year Census both to equalize the voting power in each and in consideration of the political party preferences of the voters in each.
It is a collection of songs which mostly had not previously appeared on a regular Siberry album, comprising tracks that she recorded for movie soundtracks or in collaboration with other artists.

Waterloo is a London Underground station located within the Waterloo station complex that incorporates both the tube station and the main line railway station. It is the third busiest station on the Underground network with over 91million passenger entries and exits in 2014, and it is served by four lines: the Bakerloo, Jubilee, Northern and Waterloo & City lines.
The first Underground station at Waterloo was opened on 8 August 1898 by the Waterloo & City Railway (W&CR), a subsidiary of the owners of the main line station, the London and South Western Railway (L&SWR). The W&CR, nicknamed "The Drain", achieved in a limited way the L&SWR's original plan of taking its tracks the short distance north-east into the City of London.
Spurrier's Tavern was a prominent location along the post road from Philadelphia to Georgetown. The tavern was renamed to "Waterloo", to which the community was named. The greater Waterloo area is now referenced as Jessup, Maryland. The Maryland State Police Waterloo barracks retain the old name of the community.
The Waterloo was a 414-ton merchant ship built at Bristol, England in 1815. She made four voyages transporting convicts from England to Australia and two voyages from Ireland to Australia.
Career
On her first convict voyage, under the command of Stephen Addison and surgeon Michael Goodsir, she departed London on the 14 March 1829, with 180 male convicts. She arrived in Sydney on 9 July 1829. There were two convict deaths en route. The second convict voyage, under the command of Stephen Addison and surgeon William Trotman, she departed Dublin on 18 December 1830 with 200 male convicts. She arrived in Sydney on 30 April 1831 and had one convict death en route.
The third convict voyage, under the command of John Cow and surgeon John Stephenson, she departed Sheerness on 12 March 1833 with 214 male convicts. She arrived in Sydney on 3 August 1833 and had eleven convict deaths en route. On her fourth convict voyage, under the command of John Cow and surgeon George Roberts, she departed Portsmouth on the 20 November 1834, with 224 male convicts. She arrived in Hobart Town on 3 March 1835 and had no convict deaths en route. She made a fifth convict voyage, under the command of John Cow and surgeon George Roberts, she departed Cork, Ireland on 21 May 1836 with 224 male convicts. She arrived in Sydney on 6 September 1836 and had two convict deaths en route.

LU: The Waterloo & City line
Today’s video is a short film about the Waterloo & City line of the London Underground.
Merely connecting two stations, namely Waterloo station with Bank station in the City of London, the Waterloo & City line is the shortest line of the London Underground. The line opened in 1898 and is the second-oldest underground line in London. However, for most of the time it was owned and operated by mainline railway companies, most recently by British Rail. It is only in 1994 when its operation were transferred to London Underground.
The main purpose of the line is to take commuters from the busy Waterloo railway station into the financial district of the city. As such, it only operates on weekdays and Saturdays, and it is closed on Sundays.
The film starts at Waterloo station, where trains turn...

Waterloo & City Line (1) - Class 487 (built in 1940)
The Waterloo & City Line trains which were introduced by the Southern Railway in 1940.
Here they are (mostly) seen in Network SouthEast livery, although there is a still image at the end showing a train at Waterloo in BR Blue.
We also see the surrounding station areas at Bank and Waterloo and a DM after it had been withdrawn outside the National Railway Museum at York.
The Trav-o-lator tunnel at Bank is a mess. For a station in the wealthiest district of one of the planet's wealthiest nations this was a disgrace. Apparently the City Corporation (local govt. for the area) wanted to invest in the station and make it look respectable, but not only did Mrs Thatcher's govt. forbid this but they threatened the City Corporation that if it tried making this information / dispute public then it ...

Enjoy!

Alone at night In the cold and windy city When the candle fades away Another morning And the sun's shining pretty You can watch the children play But there's a hole in the sky And it cries for you and I And we can't find the reason for calling There's a new place to see Another world for you and me And one can hear the bell which will be tolling Tolling They crossed the line See the light, it shines They crossed the line Heaven or hell, who will decide What's coming after The curse of wrath and agony, oh lord Please help us find our way We tried to get out Of the last light of eternity But we couldn't get away There's a hole in the sky And it cries for you and I But we can't find the reason for dreaming There's a new place to see Another world for you and me
