Victoria line
The next section, from there to Warren Street, opened on 1 December 1968, again without ceremony. The line was formally opened with the completion to Victoria by Queen Elizabeth II on 7 March 1969. At 11:00 a.m., the Queen made the first trip from Green Park to Victoria on a 5d (2.08p) ticket, where she unveiled a plaque. In so doing, she was the first reigning monarch ever to ride on the Underground. The line was opened to the general public by 3:00 p.m., with the route from Walthamstow to Victoria taking around 24 minutes.
