I went somewhere on a tube train, and when I got there I took this picture. But where was I?
The tedious Genesis song titles continue with the title track from the 1974 concept album "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway". And no, Peter Gabriel himself has no idea what it all meant either. Not my favourite Genesis album. This is turning into an album review thread.
Closing date is
Monday the 15th of March 2010 at 18.30 .

55 Broadway is the site of a Neil Young song?

Things of note - Mike Rutherford's double-neck bass/guitar and Phil Collins's beard. The transition to The Musical Box happens round about the 4.20 mark.

Only two entries for this, and no tangy again. What's the world coming to?Chalfont and Latimer . This exit runs down from one of the platforms, through the car park and into a neighbouring street.

No, you get no points because the answer was "Chalfont and Latimer" and you answered "Chorleywood".

One would assume it's because most people here have only seen this station in darkness...

And also most tube challengers would not be out in the car park as there is no reason to go through the barriers.
