The London Underground is the Worlds oldest and largest system carrying over 12 million passengers a year. Growing from a short steam-powered line it now extends to over 400 miles, of which about 190 miles are underground, carrying over 12 million passengers a year.

Tony Earle, a retired Scientist from Kodak, looks at the history and building of the railway from its early beginnings to the modern day with personal recollections of travelling on the ‘Tube’ from the early 50’s. The talk is well illustrated with a light- hearted quiz at the end.

About Tony Earle

--------------- I would like to introduce myself to you as a possible future speaker.-----------------

After 40 years at the Kodak Research Labs. I have been giving talks in the North, East and West Home Counties.

My talks are suitable for all sizes of groups and clubs and I have held them in all manner of locations ranging from cinemas to village halls. All talks are general non-technical and interesting with pictures and video. They are delivered in an easy, relaxed and amusing manner which encourages audience participation.

I have a range of subjects some of which relate to my work and others my interests. With the Kodak, Thames Barge, Charity shops and Bus talks I bring a few artefacts. I bring along everything required, including a screen, if suitable equipment is not available to give an illustrated talk.

I have an all inclusive Fee, (no messey Travel Expenses etc.). Taking bookings for 2024/25 Leaflet on request. tony.earle@gmail.com
