==Abandoned structures== Some underground structures are no longer in use. These include: * The [[London Hydraulic Power Company]], set up in 1883, installed a [[hydraulic power network]] of high-pressure cast-iron water mains. These were bought by [[Mercury Communications]] for use as telecommunications ducts. * Sections of the [[London Pneumatic Despatch Company]] tunnels linking the General Post Office and [[Euston Railway station]]. * An extensive private underground railway, the [[London Post Office Railway]], was constructed by the [[Post Office]], fell into disuse and has now become a tourist attraction. * [[Closed London Underground stations]] are generally not accessible to the public except on [[London Transport Museum]] guided tours.
