Quite spacious - is this a daily commuter train?

Sure is Elsa, mid afternoon so not many commuters this photo shows the tube trains in a more familiar guise think sardines i.e. later in the afternoon on the 9/9/16! This time an older Piccadilly Line train, note the different colour scheme!

As shown by the second shot is still not crowded, imagine three times as many people. In the summer heat it can get a bit smelly, but action is being taken to alleviate the pong!

Okay, to me, that's pretty easy to relate to.   ;D

Mike, these are pretty interesting images to investigate.  :)

Been there Colin, that Piccadilly Line train to Heathrow has the added attraction of lots of large suitcases as well at times!

Akira, I'm sure you know about crowded trains, so far the Underground does not employ pushers on! I like to imagine all the individual stories of the passengers!

Thanks Elsa, Colin and Akira.
