Depth?

edit

The article says this would have been the "deepest underground train station in the world", but does not say how deep? Can someone who knows put this information into the article? Beorhtwulf (talk) 18:08, 23 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

It appears this has now been addressed: 800m. Beorhtwulf (talk) 13:44, 9 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
