  1. I guess it could be said that London still operates 1960s era cars on the Bakerloo Line, although built in the early 1970s as a 7-car version of the 1960s Victoria Line trains.

  2. I’m hoping someone can devise some simple, Tube line coloured circles (NYC Subway style) w/ the line abbreviation (V for Victoria, W for W&C, Ci for Circle, Ce for Central etc) for such a game.

  3. Did something fall off on the first line? There is just a pair of parentheses shown behind a bullet point.
