Wing archway and is open from Tuesday to Friday from 10 am to 4 pm. The collections are searchable on the Barts Health NHS Trust online catalogue, which contains information on over 50,000 entries and covering an 800-year span. Also on the site is the Barts Pathology Museum, which has over 4,000 medical specimens on display and has been described by CNN as one of the "world's 10 weirdest medical museums". This museum is only open by appointment and for special events. Both museums are part of the London Museums of Health & Medicine group. Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson A chemical laboratory at Barts was the location of the initial meeting of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson in Arthur Conan Doyle's 1887 novel A Study in Scarlet. Barts was Watson's alma mater. This fictional connection led to a donation by the Tokyo "Sherlock Holmes Appreciation Society" to the Save Barts Campaign in the 1990s. In 2012, the final episode of the second series of the BBC drama Sherlock, "The Reichenbach Fall", had Holmes appearing to have deliberately leapt to his death from the roof of St Bartholomew's as a surrogate for the waterfall of the original story "The Final Problem". The hospital was again used as the location for the resolution to Holmes' faked suicide, in the first series three episode "The Empty Hearse". Transport London Buses routes 4, 8, 17, 25, 45, 46, 56, 63, 76, 100, 153, 172, 242, 521, N8, N63 and N76 serve the hospital, with bus stops located outside or near the hospital. The nearest Underground stations are Barbican and Farringdon on the Circle, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan lines and St Paul's on the Central line. Farringdon is also served by Thameslink trains. Patient entertainment Barts Radio, formally the London Chest Radio and St Andrews Airwaves, broadcast to the hospital, sharing programming with East London Radio. In 2022 Bedrock Radio began serving the hospital and wider Barts Health Trust as part of the community health radio service covering East London, South Essex and immediate surrounding areas.
