The Waterloo & City line is a tube line operated by London Underground. Crossing under the Thames, it runs between Waterloo and Bank stations with no intermediate stops. Its primary traffic is bringing commuters from south-western England arriving into Waterloo mainline station to the City of London. As a primarily commuter link it does not operate on Sundays or public holidays.

It was opened on 11 July 1898, having been built by the Waterloo & City Railway Company. Bank station was originally named "City". It was the second electric tube railway to open in London, after the City and South London Railway (now part of the Northern line). Owned and operated by two mainline rail companies before nationalisation into British Rail, it was transferred to London Underground in 1994 following a major refurbishment and stock replacement. Entirely underground aside from a shaft at its Waterloo depot, the line is not connected to any other rail route; rolling stock is removed for refurbishment using a road crane.

A flush toilet is a toilet that disposes of human liquid and solid waste, by using water to flush it through a drainpipe to another location for disposal, thus maintaining a separation between humans and their excreta. Flush toilets can be designed for sitting (in which case they are also called "Western" toilets) or for squatting, in the case of squat toilets. The opposite of a flush toilet is a dry toilet which uses no water for flushing.

Flush toilets usually incorporate an "S", "U", "J", or "P" shaped bend that causes the water in the toilet bowl to collect and act as a seal against sewer gases. Since flush toilets are typically not designed to handle waste on site, their drain pipes must be connected to waste conveyance and waste treatment systems. When a toilet is flushed, the wastewater flows into a septic tank or sewage system and from there to a sewage treatment plant.

A flush toilet may be colloquially called a lavatory, a water closet (abbreviated W.C.), a loo, a comfort room (abbreviated "C.R.") and many other names.
