My trip to London last month had me stay overnight near Finsbury Square and I had to walk past the Moorgate memorial a few times so thought I'd get a few pics along the way.

I got on the #HammersmithandCityLine at #Moorgate and had to endure this group of rowdy, alcohol drinking young white people until #WestHam.

Today marks fifty years since the tragic accident that occurred at #Moorgate station on the #London #Underground that cost the lives of 43 people and injured dozens more.
Today we remember those who died, survived, the rescuers and the families who were left to grieve. #anniversary #finsburysquare
#Onthisday in 1975. #Moorgate tube crash. The worst London Underground crash in history with 43 deaths. The train went at 40mph into a dead end. The driver's cabin was reduced from a depth of 3ft to 6in. It took 4 days to get to his remains. The cause remains a mystery.

#BlueSky keeps filling my feed with #TheArchers stories so I found myself back on R4 after years away (sorry Helen, you drove me mad!) and the best bit was hearing the play at 2.15pm again. I loved those and now if you miss an episode you can catch up. So a big thanks all for the #Moorgate play ❤️❤️❤️
Looking along the platform at Moorgate Northern City Line station towards the 'headwall' where trains would normally stop, only one red 1938 Tube Stock car is visible in the platform with the rest of the 3-car unit occupying the over-run tunnel beyond, horribly crushed out of view. The rear 3-car unit of the 6-car train has been uncoupled and removed. Rescue workers and equipment are on the platform and firefighters can be seen standing on the roof of the car, which is tilting upwards at an angle where it had ridden up onto the car in front.
#OnThisDay 50 years ago at 08:46, @TfL experienced its darkest peacetime hour when a Northern City Line train over-ran #Moorgate platform at 30-40mph and crashed into the dead-end tunnel with the loss of 43 lives. This @LondonFire page conveys the horror buff.ly/3chppjg
I never listen to R4 afternoon play, but did today while baking, as it was on #Moorgate crash, 50th anniversary of which is this week.
Very disappointing that no mention of my alma Mater, the Royal London Hospital.
Only Guys and Barts.
A former colleague of mine received an MBE for her contribution.

Final snap from the #tfl tour of #Moorgate is a bit of a cheat as I took this one in a public bit by sticking my camera into the middle of the spiral staircase going down from the ticket hall to the national rail platforms.

The London Transport Museum arrange tours of the disused parts of tube stations. This week I'm sharing snaps of a behind the scenes visit to #Moorgate starting with this disused staircase.
