Aldwych station was apparently closed during the war. Anyway, I’m pretty sure someone would have had a look before running a train down there.
I'm sure you're right. I guess my example was because even if you're certain that the chamber is empty because you cleared it yourself, you still have an inhibition about looking down the barrel. Even if logically I knew no trains were coming, I'd have a hard time sleeping there.
You can also hear trains really well if you're both in a concrete tube.
