Old St and Moorgate

What is the situation with these stations? The timeline shows a police report of explosions there but makes no further mention. There were also early reports of three bus explosions. The only one mentioned now is Tavistock.

"There were fewer explosions than first thought, as two blasts occurred on trains that were between stations. In such cases, the wounded emerged from both stations, giving the impression that there was an incident at each station."

A likely explanation for the initial reports of 'Old Street' and 'Moorgate' is that they were mishearings of Aldgate ('Ald' can sound like 'Old'; and 'gate' can, obviously, sound like 'gate'). Carcharoth 23:22, 13 July 2005 (UTC)
