"Moscow Concourse" - a photo on Flickriver

"Moscow Concourse"

            The so-called 'Moscow Concourse' at Gants Hill station, designed by Charles Holden and inspired by the original station designs of the Moscow Metro, which the London Underground had recommended for the Soviet system in the 1930s. Gants Hill opened to passengers on 14 December 1947 as part of the Central Line extension programme.

Photos at the London Transport Museum show that the uplighters and seats running down the centre of the concourse were not present originally.
