Monument [Met]
LUL D78 train on a District Line service to Ealing Broadway departing from Monument station, alongside a D78 train to Upminster, on the evening of Sunday, 13th January 2013. This station opened as Eastcheap with the completion of the Circle Line on 6th October 1884 but was quickly renamed Monument just three weeks later on 1st November. An escalator connection to Bank station (Central, Northern and Waterloo & City Lines) was opened in 1933 and with the Docklands Light Railway opened to Bank in 1991, this is now one of the biggest and busiest interchanges on the LUL system.
