It would be nice to have a photo of the station itself. TheGrappler 16:33, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
"it is now wholly disused. ... reportedly used by engineers to store sleepers"
Being pedantic, if we are treating those reports as credible, the station may not be wholly disused. -- rbrwr ± 15:03, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
The station was also the main HQ for the Royal Scots Guard throughout the 1980's up until some point during the 1990's. (London Walks)
I've removed intense rivalry as the reason for there being no interchange - this is unlikely to have been the case. The CLR built interchanges with the Baker Street & Waterloo Railway at Oxford Circus and the Charing Cross, Euston & Hampstead Railway at Tottenham Court Road - both of which lines had the same owners as the GNP&BR - the Underground Electric Railways Company of London a company with which the CLR was cooperating for the production of joint promotional material less than a year later.-- DavidCane ( talk) 00:54, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Hello,
I made an addition to the British Museum Station page in the In Popular Culture section saying that in an episode of Endeavour, Morse meets another character there. It seems you have removed that edit. May I ask why? I was going to come back to add some proper links etc. I don't want to make poorly formatted edits and I'm happy to be guided.
Best regards,

The station is reputed to be haunted by the ghost of the daughter of an Egyptian Pharaoh called Amen-ra which would appear and scream so loudly that the noise would carry down the tunnels to adjoining stationswould seem a more obvious target. At least the station's appearance in Endeavour is sourceable; the sole source for the ghost is this blog. (The existence of a secret tunnel between the station and the BM's collection of mummies is particularly impressive, given that they're upstairs. Needless to say, there was never a pharaoh Amen-ra, who was a deity not a person.) ‑ Iridescent 19:51, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
