the tube

London's Underground Metro System

Consisting of 12 lines and a light railway system:

Bakerloo
Central
Circle
District
East London
Hammersmith & City
Jubilee
Metropolitan
Northern
Piccadilly
Victoria
Waterloo & City
And The Docklands Light railway

Although a unique and complicated system it is the oldest underground rail network system in the world... and it shows. Crowded trains, long delays and soaring temperatures are just some of the things daily commuters have to put up with... on a good day. My advice is to travel on a weekend and take plenty of water.

It's a fun place to doss around but not that fun if you have to use it everyday, day in day out. Skating in the underground is the best though.

Useless facts:
- Angel Station has the longest underground escalator in the whole of the underground, taking 80 seconds and raising 90 vertical feet.
-Less than 50% of the tube is actually underground
-Central London's stations are extremely crowded, the closests being just 0.16miles, making it quicker to walk.

Mind the gap

Please Refrain from Skateboards anywhere on the London Underground

This train terminates at... Edgware
