About

The creaky doors of Moorgate Station, one of London’s Underground stations, are set to swing open for a special Hidden London guided tour with the London Transport Museum.

More than just a station, Moorgate is a historical gem that serves as a time capsule from 1865. With this VIP ticket, you can roam its tunnels and deserted tracks, finding the only surviving Greathead tunneling shield from 1904!

As you walk down passageways hidden from public gaze for over a century, look at the glass tiles of the City and South London Railway, and listen to narratives of Moorgate Station’s past as a freight hub.
