it as one of the best 'secret' things to look out for in London. Within two weeks Network Rail had painted it over whilst 'cleaning' up the tunnel. A huge press outcry followed. The story was covered in The Guardian, The Spectator, Time Out, The Evening Standard, and Poetry News and was even given a ten minute slot on Canadian Radio. Christopher Hamilton-Emery, the director of Salt publishing that publishes Sue Hubbard's collection Ghost Station, in which the poem appears, began a Facebook campaign. The response was phenomenal. More than 1200 people signed up demanding the restoration of the poem.
