Splendid news about the disused Waterloo International station which is currently costing taxpayers £2m a year.
Apparently it is to return to use within a matter of months!
This from luvvie rag The Stage...
A new stage adaptation of E. Nesbit’s novel The Railway Children is to be performed in the former Eurostar terminal at Waterloo Station.
Timed to coincide with the 40th anniversary of the film version of the book, the production will run from July 4, with press night on July 12, and is booking until September 4, 2010.
Eye is surprised that a children's play was selected.
Surely a good old fashioned British farce would have been more apposite.
