Baker St. memorial.

A letter appears in The Telegraph today saying:

SIR - In Baker Street underground station, a fine marble war memorial is
passed by thousands every day. It is now dirty and decrepit.

A friendly Transport for London official told me that the cost of repair
was unaffordable at £10,000. I told him I would polish the big brass
shield, whose engraving is scarcely legible for filth. He said he would
do it himself, in a week or so. Lest he forget, before Remembrance
Sunday, I shall be there with my Brasso.

Penrose Halson

It's many years since I was in Baker St., but I seem to remember
seeing this memorial. Isn't it in memory of all London Transport staff
who died in WW1?

Perhaps someone here can link us to a photograph?
