Welcome aboard!

Autumn 2010, two Japanese Manga artists, Chie Kutsuwada and Inko decided to start personification of tube stations in London.

Here in GoGo Metro!, you might have a chance to meet your local station in person...?!

Check out who they are and what they're up to!

#INKtober 15 - Covent Garden

Today's #INKtober is Covent Garden!

He used to be such a famous fruit & vegetable market, where people gather, hence full of histories, cultures, and troubles too. There were London's first professional police force. Come to London? Worth visiting him, definitely.

My best fiend?

The shortest distance between adjacent stations is between Leicester Square station and Covent Garden station, only 0.16 miles (1.25km / 285 yards), so it's quicker to walk rather than taking Piccadilly line to access to each other.
The closest stations.

...Whether they like it or not...

The two completely different characters have been live side by side since 1907.
Leicester is very much fond of films while Covent G is enjoying Operas.
Sometimes get into an quarrel, sometimes enjoy their companies, the unlike duo has woven
their histories.

Covent Garden in Colour

Most of time the stations' clothing are based on their platform tiling. Here you can see the Covent Garden's colouring plan is also taken from his actual tiling.
His dark blur shoes are - of cause - the symbol colour of Piccadilly Line!
