1) Ferry seems a reasonable answer. Going to the bank of a river. Don't like 'metro' as no capital letter for Bank and we call it the Tube' anyway not the metro.
2. If it is "it's only one among hundreds" as you posted yesterday then...

I was the one who offered FERRY.

I have looked at all 115 words fitting that pattern in Chambers, and FERRY is the only one that seems to answer the clue.

If somebody else can find something bett then I defer to them.
But you go to Bank station for the Metro (Tube) - but I don't think the compiler is that devious !!
But we would not call the Tube a "Metro" in the UK.
I don't want to labour the point, as I think Ferry is correct, but you can pick up a free newspaper called the Metro at London stations.
Good thinking Dave. Maybe it is Metro after all then.
..... so you could go to Bank station for a copy of the Metro. Or you could go to any bank for a ferry.
Dee - where does this crossword come from? If, for example, it's the Irish Times, then it won't be Metro !!

re the paper a fairly local rag The Newham Recorder on a Wed, the same crossword is repeated on Thurs in the Ilford Recorder and again on Fri in the Romford Recorder, so I do all three entries ! why not ?
sorry Rollo that I did not trust you yesterday, a senior moment no doubt on my part, but I will in future.
once again best regards Dee
I hope, after all this, that you win something - you certainly deserve it !!!
