LONDON UNDERGROUND
The London Underground (it is often called the Tube) is the oldest metro in the world. It
has been used for passenger transporting since 1863. Nowadays the London Underground is the
most popular means of city transport because it is relatively cheap, convenient, quick and safe.
Its length is about 400 km. Every day the Tube carries over 2.5 million passengers. The total
number of passengers carried by the Underground each year is enormous and it is constantly
growing.
In the London Metro there are 11 underground lines, each of them has its own color. For
example, the lines are called: Central (red), Circle (yellow), East London (orange),
Metropolitan (dark brown), Northern (black), Victoria (light blue) and so on.
Only half of the trains go under the ground, new lines that connect London with its
suburbs go over the ground. On such routes express trains are operated. They stop at a very few
stations on their way that is very convenient for those people who live in the suburbs but work
in the center of London.
There are 275 stations in the London Metro. Most of them are old and not attractive to
the eye. The walls are simply white or gray plastered with all kinds of advertisements.
Numerous stations, which are rather deep under the ground, are equipped with escalators.
