[edit] Reading your post makes me think it was Andrew Martin's "Overground, Underground".

yes. It wasn't brilliant - quite bitty in a lot of places - but still plenty of nice little facts and stories.
Also, it send me on a spending spree for vintage Tube posters. Currently have this in my kitchen: www.amazon.co.uk/Brightest-London-Reached-Underground-Poster/dp/B0049A9EK4/ref=sr_1_2?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1342011258&sr=1-2
EDIT: And which other Underground books are any good, then (you massive train geek)?
