Commemorations have taken place to mark 50 years since the Moorgate Tube crash which killed 43 people and left 74 injured.

The London Fire Brigade (LFB) joined Transport for London (TfL), emergency service partners and families of survivors at the Moor Place memorial for a service of remembrance.

The disaster is considered to be the worst peacetime loss of life on the London Underground (to date) when a Northern City line train failed to stop at Moorgate Tube station and crashed into a dead end.

For six days, London Fire Brigade led over 1,300 firefighters, 240 police officers, 80 ambulance workers, 16 doctors and volunteers in the rescue and recovery operation.

As part of the memorial service, the names of the crash victims were read aloud, followed by a moment of silence and reflection.

Floral tributes were then placed at the memorial on behalf of the LFB, TfL and family members.
