Beatles' Abbey Road

Some misguided Beatles' fans have been turning up at the Abbey Road Docklands Light Railway station, instead of the the correct road ten miles away in St John's Wood... :sad:

I think that is both a nice idea and a nice implementation of it. If I was a tourist guide showing someone around I might try and work that in just before the stop at the real crossing. (When I was showing my much younger sister around London I sometime deliberately went to the wrong place with the same name, just to spread the day out a bit, and make the whole thing seem more adventurous looking for the places. The Journeying around, sometimes off the Beatlen Track, was often the most fun part anyway.)
I seriously don’t ever try to annoy. Maybe I am just the kid that missed being told about the King’s new magic suit, :(
