Steam train rolls into Baker Street Underground station

A steam train was spotted at London's Baker Street Tube station last weekend.



The historical locomotive was there as part of Transport for London’s preparations for the Tube’s upcoming 150th anniversary.

After the services had shut down for the evening, the locomotive dating from 1923, ran along the oldest sections of the London Underground.

“As part of preparations for London Underground’s 150th anniversary in 2013, LU conducted a trial run of a steam locomotive on parts of the Circle and District lines,” a TfL spokesman said.
