Did you know.
The world's first underground railway - the Metropolitan Line - opened
to the public on the 10th January 1863, running from Paddington (Bishop's
Road) to Farringdon Street. The London Underground has been known as
'The Tube' since 1890, when the first deep-level electric line was opened.
Every day, about three million passenger journeys are made in 4000
Underground cars which run along 253 miles of route, servicing 275
stations.
The longest line is the Central Line, which has a length of 46 miles,
servicing 49 stations.
The deepest Underground station is Hampstead at a depth of 192 ft. (58.5m).
The station at Angel contains the longest escalator in Western Europe at a
length of 6 ft. 10 ins. (60m.) with a vertical rise of just over 90 ft. (27.5m.).
The busiest
ation is Victoria, with approximately 76 million journeys
starti
ding there each year, followed by Oxford Circus and King's
Cross.
London Underground handles nearly 1000 million (in English - one milliard)
passenger journeys per annum - the same as all other U.K. train operators
combined.
The longest continuous Underground tunnel is on the Northern Line
between Morden and East Finchley (via Bank) - 17.25 miles.
Every Tube train travels the distance from London to Sydney (10,500 miles)
seven times a year. In fact, the system carries as many individual
passengers a year as the entire population of Australia.
London Underground's world famous logo, the roundel - a red circle
crossed by a horizontal blue bar - was re-designed by calligrapher Edward
Johnston and first appeared in 1918.
There are 410 escalators and 102 lifts keeping passengers moving
throughout the system. Waterloo station has the most escalators - 25.
The London Underground Map is one of the most reproduced maps in the
world. Originally designed by Harry Beck, it first appeared in 1933 and has
become one of the most recognised designs throughout the world.
