Sorry, was just typing as fast as they were talking. Didn't realise I had omitted a small yet very significant piece of information.

Looks like they've now confirmed just the 4 blasts [Link]

ALDGATE EAST - LIVERPOOL STREET TUBE STATIONS

Two people are confirmed dead after an explosion rips through a carriage on an Underground train heading from Aldgate East to Liverpool Street station.

Emergency services are first called at 0849BST after reports of an explosion.

The blast has happened on a Hammersmith and City line train, Transport for London later confirm.

A passenger tells of an "enormous bang and a lot of smoke". He adds: "A group of us got fire extinguishers and were able to smash through the carriage door."

Passengers are rushed out of Liverpool Street station by police and Underground staff. Anxiety increases as mobile phones stop working, leaving people unable to contact friends and relatives.

At Liverpool Street Station in the City financial district, the wounded are treated by medics as they lie on the concourse.

A doctor at Aldgate estimates that at least 90 people had been wounded in the explosion.

Liverpool Street is a major underground and overland interchange through which hundreds of thousands of commuters, many of them financial workers, pass each day.

EDGWARE ROAD TUBE STATION

The explosion occurs on a Hammersmith and City line train just outside the Underground station, heading towards Paddington.

After the blast passengers begin emerging from the station, many covered in blood and clearly distraught.

Paramedics go into the station, prompting fears there may still be injured people trapped underground.

A woman passenger tells the BBC there was a huge bang as two trains passed in a tunnel just outside Edgware Road. "All the lights went out and there was a lot of smoke. I believe it's the second carriage that has all the injured people in it."

A senior police official said there had been a number of fatalities but that "things are still relatively confused".

Those able to walk are looked after at a nearby hotel. Emergency services are described as "stretched".

The area around Edgware Road underground station remains sealed off. An official says there are 12 fire appliances and 60 firefighters there.

Edgware Road is a busy station with four underground lines: Hammersmith and City, District, Circle and Bakerloo.

KING's CROSS TUBE - RUSSELL SQUARE

An explosion occurs on the Piccadilly Underground line heading north from Russell Square to King's Cross.

An eye-witness who was on the train says: "I was in the second carriage and I think the explosion was in the carriage in front of me, or maybe was even on the track. The screaming from the front carriage was terrible."

Another passenger says that - after 30 minutes - people smashed windows to get out of their carriage and started walking down the side of the train.

Two hours later, police say a rescue operation is still in place to evacuate some passengers still trapped underground.

King's Cross is a major underground and railway interchange with both commuter and long distance railway lines terminating there.

WOBURN PLACE

The explosion ripped the top deck off a double decker bus in Woburn Place / Tavistock Square.

The location is near to Russell Square - scene of one of the underground train blasts - and also Euston mainline railway station.

Describing the blast, eyewitness Belinda Seabrook said: "I was on the bus in front and heard an incredible bang, I turned round and half the double decker bus was in the air.

"It was a massive explosion and there were papers and half a bus flying through the air."

It is unclear how many casualties have resulted from the blast.

That's just the ramblings of a madman

just be told we can all go home, now the fun begins trying to get home

Just heard there are 33 CONFIRMED deaths, but that does not include explosion on the bus

I'm guessing one of us can't add up - I thought it was 21 at Aldgate / Liverpool St, 7 at Russell Square / Kings Cross & 5 at Edgware Rd, but I may well have heard wrong

That's just the ramblings of a madman
