Waterloo & City Line

The Waterloo & City Line is a short underground metro line in London, formally opened on 11 July 1898. It has only two stations, Waterloo and Bank (formerly called "City", hence the name of the line), between which it passes under the River Thames. It exists almost exclusively to serve commuters between Waterloo mainline station and the financial district of the City of London, and does not operate late in the evening or on Sundays. By far the shortest line on the London Underground: at only 1.5 miles (2.5 km) in length, it takes only four minutes to travel from end to end.
