I have walked through the interchange between the Jubilee and Piccadilly lines at Green Park countless times, but only today did I notice something cool, the tiles on the walls actually change colour depending on where you are. As you head towards the Piccadilly line, they get more blue, and as you move towards the Jubilee line, they turn more grey. A small design detail, but pretty fascinating!

Such a long walk
Always head up the escalators towards the exit and then back down to the other line at Green Park. It *seems* quicker anyway.
Did a Transport Museum Hidden London tour there and they talked about that – if you are a bit geeky about the tube you should check the tours out

Cool. It reminds me of an animated physics simulation I watched of the Chernobyl reactor disaster.
See what I mean:

Bloke in the pub told me, If you know where they are, certain sections are actually QR codes to secret websites used by the royal family to get up to dodgy stuff.
You’ll never finish that crosseord
I’m still struggling with 3 down and 14 across.
Very cool, but have you tried scanning the walls with your phone for secret QR codes?
That’s pretty
saw this at a glance and for a moment I thought is this loss

this effect is called **dithering**
Is it grey? I thought it was silver, as the jubilee line was after the silver jubilee.
I’m glad you’re one of the people that learned this today
It is a code for spies

I’ve always thought this showed [Conway’s Game of Life](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway%27s_Game_of_Life). No idea why it would be there, and I seem to recall it’s also on the interchange wall at a couple other stations.

It’s neat, but I wouldn’t say it’s subtle.
